Casing Wear Estimator

Estimate casing wear volume and remaining wall thickness from drill string rotation, contact force, and wear coefficient. Critical for casing integrity assessment.

Inputs

From dogleg severity and drill string tension

Typical: 0.2–1.0 × 10⁻¹⁰ in²/lbf

5.5" 20# = 0.415"

Equations

Casing Wear: Based on Archard's wear model

Wear depth: d = K × F × (rpm × t × 60 × π × OD_dp / 12) where K = wear coefficient

Remaining wall: t_rem = t_original - d_wear

Critical threshold: > 20% wear requires engineering assessment; > 40% typically requires remediation
