    This document discusses a low riser return and mudlift system (LRRS) for offshore drilling. Some key points: 1. LRRS uses a high-pressure, small-diameter riser and keeps the mud level in the riser far below sea level using a mud-lift pump, allowing for longer hole sections and fewer casing strings. 2. LRRS allows wellbore pressures to be changed without changing mud weight by raising or lowering the mud level in the riser, and can enable underbalanced drilling using water and a reduced fluid level. 3. LRRS simplifies well control as the riser can handle high pressures without need for choke or kill lines, and reduces drilling

    Low Riser Return and Mudlift System

     High-Pressure “Small” Diameter Riser

     Longer Hole Sections

     Fewer Casing Strings

     Mud Level in Riser far below Sea Level

     Mud-Lift Pump keeps Mud Level low

    Some LRRS Advantages

     Wellbore pressures can be changed


    without changing the mud weight
     This is accomplished by raising or lowering
    the mud level in the riser
     Underbalanced drilling can often be achieved
     Drilling with water and a reduced fluid level
    in the riser results in abnormally low
    pressures in the wellbore

     The riser can act as a mud / gas separator

    9
    More LRRS Advantages

     Well control is simplified


     The riser can handle high pressures

     No choke or kill lines are necessary

     Drilling costs are reduced


     Less time to run smaller riser

     Use smaller rig


     Fewer casing strings

     Potential for 30% reduction in well costs
