Converting Pressure into Mud Weight Formula

\( MW \;=\;  \dfrac{ p }{ 0.052 + TVD }\)     (Converting Pressure into Mud Weight)

\( p \;=\;   0.052 \cdot (MW - TVD) \)

\( TVD \;=\;    MW -  \dfrac{ p }{ 0.052 } \)

Symbol English Metric
\( MW \) = Converting Pressure into Mud Weight (ppg) \(lbm\;/\;gal\) -
\( p \) = Pressure (psi) \(lbf\;/\;in^2\) -
\( TVD \) =  True Vertical Depth \(ft\) -
