constantly i used to read smaller articles or reviews
that also clear their motive, and that is also happening with this article which I am reading here.
JB, re your 6.34am Jan 13, anyone who simply falls back on the “slippery eel” riposte when cornered, as you so often do JB, generally presents as having difficulty in grasping erudite output me old mate.
Really?

Has to be a joke. Like anyway would take any notice (unless they wanted to).
Anyone
Mack the Knife says: January 12, 2018 at 12:16 pm “Ah, from that august scientific publication “the conversation”, it must be true” MTK Do you pick yourself up off the floor after each episode of wild flailing where you only hit yourself. The article was written by 2 Professors both connected to the Australian Research Council. Tell me MTK when you supposedly worked on a rig did you follow the seismic data or use the drilling fluids prescribed for the type of formation or run the equipment as the OEM suggested or just drill ahead at will because you knew better? ? You really are highlighting how ideology and ignorance is severely impacting society. Maybe don’t drink before commenting? No Surprises.
Bit repetitive eh what? Copy and pasting your own comments. Grasping at straws with your inane comments.
Do me a favour and expand on this gem,” Tell me MTK when you supposedly worked on a rig did you follow the seismic data or use the drilling fluids prescribed for the type of formation or run the equipment as the OEM suggested or just drill ahead at will because you knew better? ? ”
Inanity thy name is Dismayed and from that little I don’t think you know much about drilling, at all, ever.
MTK? Are you FN serious? I pasted your repetitive comments. Short memory Dinosaur.You apparently know more than the Professors and the research bodies. As for your absolute ridiculous last part. You have just proven you are a fraud. If you have not used seismic information (apparently you know more than the Geo’s?) or used the drilling fluids recommended for the formations shown on the seismic information ( I was trying to keep as simple as possible due to your obvious deficit) or when using equipment followed the manufacturers recommendations you have just proven you are probably a water well drilling cowboy working off the back of a truck . The point which obviously you are unable to grasp is. When you supposedly drill your (water) wells do you take the advice of those that have done the work to firstly select the area to drill and then use the as I said advised fluids and do you use the equipment as designed? It is now clear you are just some sort of rip tear bust cowboy. Do you follow the well (engineering) plan? do you follow the casing design etc or just wing it? It is becoming clear you have probably not worked for any real operators. You continue to prove you re all piss and wind and have severely diminished your clam to have been a Senior Drilling hand with your last part of another ridiculous comment. No Surprises.
You need professional help
Well, I wasn’t going to dignify your rabid spray with a comment, but at the risk of testing Jack’s patience, I’ll give you a rundown of how oil companies direct the team on the rig to drill an exploration well, just for example.
First the sub-surface team, usually comprising reservoir engineers and operations geologists, study seismic data as you call it, or 3-D seismic maps as they are generally called and identify geological structures that may or may not possibly contain trapped hydrocarbons. Then they pass that information to the drilling department and say, “Is it possible to design and drill a well that will get us to that structure with an 8-1/2″ or as a contingency, a 6″ or 6-1/8″ production hole section”? “Is the pope a catholic”? “We are the drilling dept, we can do anything” might be the reply. With the input from directional drilling engineers/coordinators and drilling fluid engineers amongst others, they then formulate a draft drilling & casing program, and after much further investigations, fit for purpose equipment availability confirmation from vendors, meetings and discussions which might include DWOP, and approvals (especially regarding the AFE) from heads of department a Final Drilling Program is sent out to the rig via a distribution list to those that implement the drilling program, like myself and the rest of the team onboard the rig.
The drilling program is actually a series of many smaller programs grouped into hole sections which might be something similar to the following, just for an example.
26″ Surface Hole section, which would contain, but not be limited to, offset well data if available, a recommended drilling parameters program, BHA & bit program, drilling fluid & hydraulics program, directional drilling program, 20″ casing and cementing program and a Wellhead & BOP installation/testing program.
Next might be 17-1/2″ Hole section, containing programs listed like above, with instructions for drilling out the 20″ shoe, FIT or LOT program, a geological prognosis included with descriptions of various formations expected to be encountered, mud logging program including criteria for calling section TD so as to set 13-3/8″ casing in a competent shale or claystone if possible, 17-1/2″ BHA & bit program, drilling fluid and hydraulics program, directional program, instructions for end of section TD, possible logging program, wiper trip program if required, 13-3/8″ casing and cementing program, then “B” section & BOP installation and testing program.
Next would be the 12-1/4″ Hole section with 9-5/8″ casing, similar to above, usually with a more extensive logging program at section TD, “C” section installation and BOP testing procedure, then the 8-1/2″ hole section with possibly a 7″ liner or casing and cementing program after logging and a contingency to TD the well with 6″ or 6-1/8″ hole if required due to problems encountered in previous hole sections.
This little summary above does not even begin to cover it, I could expand upon it but this is way too long anyway. I didn’t mention there might be an ROV program, a completion testing program and if results are poor, a P&A program with casing retrieval included or a completion running program or a P&S program.
That’s what I use to drill a well along with 30+ years of experience but from reading the weird, not very rig hand like, terminology you used in your little outburst (which incidentally made me think you might work in the galley), I’d bet money there is a lot in the above that you didn’t understand. If I omitted things well, it is off the top of my head & I am a bit rusty after 2 years on the beach.
One of the smartest, most practical Drilling Engineers I ever worked with told me drilling a well was 30% engineering, 30% calculations/mathematics and 40% skill & local knowledge learned by years of on the job experience. Best description I ever heard of how wells are drilled. It’s an art not so much of a science, but a lot of science goes into the preparation.
Too long, Wizz. Come on.
Not guilty your Worship!

Mack the Knife says: January 12, 2018 at 12:16 pm. “Ah, from that august scientific publication “the conversation”, it must be true.” The article is written by 2 Professors in Climate Science. Oh I forgot you worked when it was hot once so you must know more. As usual all you prove is you have to disagree for the sake of it because you are too scared to face facts. The usual poor effort from you dinosaur. No Surprises.
Does the above jog your memory Dismal? Flogging a dead horse or did you forget you already made a comment? Must have got under your skin somewhere along the line. From the sheer volume and borderline paranoid content of your posts lately, I might suggest it is you who is on “the gear”, what ever that is. Not sure but I have heard of something called “the gear”, very popular with people who work offshore in Australia apparently. They should call it “gone in 48 hrs” eh what?
HB you don’t have to wait for the next idiotic trump tweet. Just watch fox and within minutes trump will tweet what he has been watching. The correlation has been proving beyond doubt through research. Your sycophantic nature no doubt still approves. You and trump are taking resources a contributing member of society could utilise.
The RBA release a report showing home ownership would soar if Negative Gearing removed leading to a big benefit to the Australian economy. The only ones that would not benefit are the wealthy landlords who enjoy the unfunded Howard/Costello largesse. No Surprises.
Here’s an interesting article from that “august” publication.

Your hypothetical (Where would Rudd have sent them) is madness because Rudd lost the election but anyway so as to massage your ego….NZealand for a start, they were already negotiating with other countries until interrupted by Abbott. Who sent a heap of refugees to NZealand from Nauru? HOWARD so good old Johnny set the precedent………. but on economic grounds alone, the refugees should have been brought here…o/seas detention costs $500,000 per head…do the Maths. Then there is/was Malaysia which Abbott said he should have supported but did not so as to make political gains. Bringing them here is lot better than spending $55million to send two refugees to Cambodia as Abbott did…how bloody mad was that? Sort of reminiscent of when Howard kept one man and his cat on Manus Island. Howard kept 25yr old Aladdin Sisalem (and his solitary cat!) on Manus Island for 6 months at a cost to the taxpayer of $4.3million. That is an incredible amount of money to waste on one guy in order to make a political point. This person was a genuine refugee like the other 99% Howard demonised as disease carrying terrorists. He is now an Australian citizen for Christ’s sake. The hypocrisy of the Libs is mind-blowing! I dunno how they keep getting away with it.
So, apart from all that blathering twaddle BASSY, your beloved Labor obviously did not even have a plan for the refugees after 12 months. Policy on the run, eh.
I haven’t voted Labor since 2007
How could they have a plan when they lost the election you Drongo?
They needed the 12months to recover from all of the opposition Abbott and Morrison
put up every time anything was suggested. The Looters even ignored the Expert Panel….Paris Aristotle nd Angus Houston and Co…they were too interested in scoring votes and demonising hapless refugees which continues to this day.
Gawd…this is the Liberal Party to a tee! Now I know where Dutts gets his poisonous arrows from!

Well if that don’t beat all. Only a Labor Govt would bring that crap in, the country is being dictated to by minorities, which hit the majority in the hip pocket. Victoria here we come.

By the way folks, I’ll put my piece on Assange up tomorrow am. Cheers.
Pushback time
Mtk man you really have nothing going on do you if you think this is of any relevance. Other states have already done it. It is not required on the little card because the information is already captured at application. Man they say QLD’ers are slow, stop trying to prove it.
It has economic relevance dopey, there was nothing wrong with the old photo id licenses. You miss the point as usual.
Did you even read and understand the article you posted? Your complete lack of comprehension is really exposing you. No Surprises.
