Figure F4. Drilling parameters and gamma ray log plotted vs. time for MWD-APWD operations in pilot Hole C0001A. GRM1 = gamma ray log from the MWD tool (real time), ECD = equivalent circulating density, APRS = average annular pressure, TRPM = MWD turbine rotation speed (off = <1500 or >4500 rpm, on = 1500–4500 rpm), TRPM_RT = TRPM (real time), CRPM = collar rotation, SWOB = surface weight on bit, HKLD = hook load, SPPA = standpipe pressure, ROP = rate of penetration, ROP_5ft = 5 ft averaged ROP, LSF = LWD depth below seafloor, DRF = drillers depth below rig floor.
