This document contains a hydraulics work sheet used to calculate hydraulic parameters for drilling operations such as pump data, pressure losses throughout the system, nozzle selection, hydraulic horsepower at the bit, and more. Sections include information on the well, drill pipe, drill collars, pump specifications, pressure losses, nozzle selection, hydraulic calculations, and hole area. The goal is to determine the appropriate nozzle size, hydraulic horsepower applied to the bit, and efficiency of the system.
