... well response. Laboratory analyses of the Morrow, Red Fork and Springer formations in the Anadarko Basin justify the use of NARS for stimulation treatments in these formations. Laboratory data and production results demonstrate that NARS can be used as an economical and effective method of mud removal...

... the previous casing run. DRILLING FLUIDS The water based fluid commonly used in the deep geopressured interval of the Anadarko Basin is a lignite lignosulfonate fluid containing 1-2 lb./ bbl. insoluble lime and small amounts of CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose) or other cellulose derivatives. Many other...

... ABSTRACT The use of straight hole turbodrills associated with diamond bits in the Anadarko Basin is discussed with reference to the optimization of drilling performance and to the techniques employed within the restraints of the local operating parameters. Examples are provided which...

... Abstract In the Anadarko Basin, well development costs increase exponentially with depth. Average porosities for both sandstone and carbonate reservoirs decrease with depth in a predictable manner. Normal pressure and temperature gradients and a general porosity-water saturation relationship...

... Abstract Gas Production in the Anadarko Basin presents some unique problems as well as some problems correlative with other reservoirs of similar depths and pressures. Some of these problems are inherent with pressures. Some of these problems are inherent with the type of reservoir mechanics...

... ABSTRACT The Morrow-Springer pressures in the Anadarko Basin have become a major factor in the exploration and exploitation of the Basin's major pre-Permian gas reserve. The tectonics affecting the Morrow-Springer formations during and after deposition of the sediments may be partly...
