This MCP server provides critical drilling engineering calculations. It allows AI agents to determine the Equivalent Circulating Density (ECD) at specific depths using calculate_ecd_profile. It also assesses how rock fragments increase density via calculate_cuttings_impact, compares static and dynamic pressure states with compare_static_dynamic_states, and adjusts mud properties for temperature and pressure using adjust_for_environment.

4 tools expose this connector's capabilities to your AI agent.

adjust_for_environment

Modify the baseline mud properties based on the thermal and pressure environment at depth

calculate_cuttings_impact

Assess how the concentration of rock fragments in the annulus increases the effective density

calculate_ecd_profile

Determine the ECD at various specific depths within the wellbore

compare_static_dynamic_states

Provide a direct comparison between the pressure exerted when the pumps are off versus when they are on

Calculate the ECD profile for a mud weight of 10.5 ppg, flow rate of 500 gpm, hole diameter of 8.5 inches, pipe diameter of 5 inches, rheology of {viscosity: 25, yieldPoint: 15}, at depths 5000, 7000, and 10000 feet.

At 5000 ft, the ECD is 10.62 ppg. At 7000 ft, the ECD is 10.65 ppg. At 10000 ft, the ECD is 10.68 ppg.

What is the impact of 5% cuttings concentration on a 12.0 ppg mud with an annular velocity of 150 ft/min?

The effective density is 12.45 ppg, resulting in a density increase of 0.45 ppg.

Compare static and dynamic pressure for a 11.0 ppg mud at 8000 ft with an annular pressure loss of 200 psi.

The static pressure is 4573 psi and the dynamic pressure is 4757 psi, with a pressure differential of 184 psi.

You can use the `calculate_ecd_profile` tool by providing the mud weight, flow rate, hole and pipe diameters, rheology parameters, and the list of target depths.
