1.6-5 Axial Forces in
Drillstring
Fb = bit weight
F1 & F1 are pressure forces
Example
A drill string consists of
10,000 ft of 19.5 #/ft drillpipe and
600 ft of 147 #/ft drill collars
suspended off bottom in 15#/gal mud
(Fb = bit weight = 0).

2. At 10,000 ft+ (top of collars)
Fb = FBIT = 0
FT = W2 - F2 - Fb 3

= 147 lbm/ft * 600 ft - 357,200
