    This document contains drilling data including depth, drilling time, weight on bit, mud properties, and rate of penetration. It then plots the d-exponent and modified d-exponent against depth on both Cartesian and semi-log scales. Based on these plots, it determines the depth of the upper zone of abnormal pressure is 10,000 feet and that the modified d-exponent is better for predicting abnormal pressure when weight on bit and rate of penetration remain constant.

    h) Depth of upper zone of abnormal pressure=10000 ft

    i) By plotting d-exponent against depth we can determine the


    abnormal pressure if there is no change in the WOB and ROP.

    j)modified d-exponent is better suited in predicting the abnormal


    pressure.
