This document provides information for planning, installation, testing, and operation of wells drilled with surface back-pressure (SBP) managed pressure drilling (MPD). This document applies only to drilling rigs with subsea blowout preventers (BOPs).
This document considers situations where the total drilling operation is performed balanced or overbalanced, including both hydrostatically overbalanced (no supplemental surface pressure needed to control inflow) and hydrostatically underbalanced (supplemental surface pressure needed to control inflow) systems.
