Keywords: procedure for calculating the equivalent circulating density; calculation of the distribution of static temperatures along the section; calculation of the distribution of dynamic temperatures along the section; rheological model of Herschel-Bulkley

Annotation:

The paper considers the sequence for calculating the equivalent circulating density proposed by the API RP 13D standard. The formulas used in the calculations are limitedly presented and the results obtained in the standard system of the USA units have been converted into the International System of Units
