    Vinyl chloride casing pipes were perforated with high pressure water jet in a pressure vessel to develop an in-situ perforation system. The casing pipes, 73mm in inner diameter and 8mm in thickness, are those used in Chiba Prefecture for natural gas production. Driving pressure of water jet was up to 98.1MPa, and ambient pressure was up to 10MPa which corresponds to the depth of 1, 000m. In addition to a so-called straight nozzle, various horn type nozzles were used to clarify the effects of shape on the performance.
    The main conclusions obtained in this study are summarized as follows:
    (1) The vinyl chloride casing pipes can be perforated with high pressure water jet up to the depth of 1, 000m if driving pressure is sufficiently high (98.1MPa).
    (2) The perforated area becomes maximum at the ambient pressure of 2-3% of the driving pressure.
    (3) The maximum ambient pressure under which the pipe can be perforated decreases with standoff distance while the perforated area under low ambient pressure increases with standoff distance.
    (4) The horn type nozzle whose half horn angle is from 15°to 35°is much more effective than the straight nozzle. The half horn angle of 15°is the most effective for the perforation of the casing pipe.
    (5) The length of horn can be reduced to about four times nozzle diameter without lowering the performance.
    (6) The perforated area per unit area of nozzle exit increases with nozzle diameter.
    (7) Cavitation is one of the main mechanisms for perforation of the vinyl chloride pipe under high ambient pressure.

    For a horizontal well or an extended reach well, which is promising for well construction in future, a casing is subjected to local wear of wall thickness on its inside surface due to contact with tool joint or wireline.
    Collapse strength and burst strength of casing having a local wear simulating tool joint wear were well analyzed as an unstable problem by the elastic-plastic finite-element method (FEM) and the decrease ratios of both strengths due to a wear were formulated by nonlinear programming using parameters of the wear shape. The FEM is fully applicable as values calculated agree well with those of experiments having a wear.In the present study, these strengths of casing having two local wears simulating tool joint wear and wireline wear are analyzed by the FEM and following quantitative relations are conducted and formulated.
    1. The decrease ratios of these strengths with tool joint wear and with wireline wear superposed are formulated.
    2. The influence of wireline wear is a half of that of tool joint wear.
    3. When two wears exist, there are threshold values of total wear ratio for collapse strengths and burst strength.

    A well casing for a horizontal well or an extended reach well is subjected to local wear of wall thickness on its inside surface due to contact with tool joint or wireline.
    It is reported that the collapse strength and the burst strength of worn casing are well analyzed as an unstable problem by the finite-element method (FEM) and that the decrease ratios of these strengths due to wear are formulated using FEM simulation results. However, the applicability of formula with two wears is not clarified by comparison with experimental result.
    In this paper, the collapse strength with two wears is analyzed by FEM and by the derived formula and is compared with an experimental result of a literature. Furtheremore, the relationship of collapse strength between casing with two wears and casing with uniform weae is analyzed.
    Following findings are conducted.
    1. The experimental collapse strength of uniformly worn casing was affected by specimen length/outside diameter (L/D). Therefore, the correction due to L/D in the elastic collapse range is necessary.
    2. The relation of collapse strength between with two wears and with uniform wear, is determined by yield strength, outside diameter/wall thickness ratio and weae ratio. Namely, the result of literature is one of these relations and is not a general relation.
    3. The proposed formula is applicable considering additional FEM results.

    In this paper, we discussed the relationship between velocity and effective porosity with the effects of the clay minerals. The relation between velocity and porosity is shown on the crossplot (Fig. 1); the velocity generally increases as the porosity decreases but the data are so dispersed that we are not able to come up with an equation that exhibits strong linear relation between velocity and porosity. We supposed that the existence of clay is the cause of this dispersion. We determined the area of the data by two equations: one equation expresses the relation between the velocity and porosity for clean sandstone and another expresses the relation between the velocity and effective porosity of 100% clay minerals in the pore space. The effective porosity is moved between two lines.
    Using the technique of well log interpretation, we estimate the volume of bound water and show the effects of clay minerals for the relationship between velocity and effective porosity.
    The velocities of shale show the effects of velocity reduction due to clay minerals.
