Formula 2.21

Bottomhole annulus pressure

Input(s)

$\rho_{\mathrm{a}}$: Annulus Fluid Density (ppg)

$\mathrm{D}_{\mathrm{av}}$: Vertical Height in the Annulus (ft)

Output(s)

$\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{bh}}$: Annulus Pressure (psi)

Formula(s)

$$ \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{bh}}=0.052 *\left(\rho_{\mathrm{a}}\right) *\left(\mathrm{D}_{\mathrm{av}}\right) $$
