#: a unique identifier for each forecast model.
MD: if the planned survey is uploaded, you can simulate ECD under current drilling parameter to TD.
MW: Mud Weight.
YP & PV: Change the YP and PV based on the mud density. Previous mud reports with the same fluid can offer a better estimate.
Hole Size: Current hole size. Increase/decrease to compare results.
Pipe OD & Pipe ID: Main pipe ID and OD size. DC & HWDP sizes/lengths are auto-loaded from latest mud report.
Casing ID & Casing Depth: Last casing ID & length in hole. Casing ID and casing Depth can be assumed as the first hole when it is monobore with two different hole sizes.
Hole 2 Size & Hole 2 Depth: Use when a second hole size is needed. It’s added to the current well geometry to extend hydraulic calculations to that depth. Use when there is no casing and there are two different open-holes. Treat first casing as the first hole then add the second.

Pipe OD & ID: are the running casing size.
Pipe 2 OD & Pipe 2 ID: Use if the running casing consists of two different sizes.
Casing ID & Casing Depth: Last casing depth and ID set in the hole.
Hole 2 Size & Hole 2 Depth: Use when a second hole size is needed. It’s added to the current well geometry to extend hydraulic calculations to that depth. Use when there is no casing and there are two different open-holes. Treat first casing as the first hole then add the second.
Flow Open: End configuration of running casing (open/closed).
