kownski, can you elaborate on those well head pressure readings for us non-oilfield folks?

TIA, Magic

knowski,

Enlighten us. whp, pressure of sorts ?? And are these good pressure figures, and doesn't it depend on the diameter of the pipe or pump or whatever. Excuse my ignorance.

Kownski--could you please explain a bit for the technologically impaired? Like me.

Is the "wellhead" at the ocean floor?
Does this take into account water pressure, if so how?
What is the assumed water depth that the wellhead is set in?

I only ask all this because 1500m or ~5000ft of water gives you a pressure of 2166 psi in fresh water (I don't ever work in salt water so don't know the conversion) Anyhow, just wondering because pressure just seem to account for water depth.
