Determining the Effect of Tie Back Seal Assemblies to Improve Collapse Resistance for Liner Hanger Extensions Team

Objective

Deliverable

Explore possible methods of calculating the collapse pressure of Oil Country Tubular Goods. Additionally, investigate factors such as length, eccentricity, temperature, and ovality and their effect on collapse pressure.

Critical Length Sponsor Liaison: Charles Meador

Team Members: Jonathon Gonzales Jason Lenamond Faculty Advisor: Andreas Slettehaugh Dr. Haider Hekiri Trenton Turner Keaton Whitaker

Ovality

Ovality has limited effect and is factored into the Tomano Equations

Code developed using Excel and is programmed to include the Tomano Equations, as well as previously known methods. This program allows designers to quickly test and consider different pipe profiles.

Eccentricity

Eccentricity has a significant effect on pipe collapse

• • •

Critical Length: 8x the outer diameter Longer section analyzed using Tomano Equations (2007) Shorter sections rely on the Lamé Equation

Temperature Derating

Temperature change has minimal effect
