buoyancy
|
The upward force acting on an object placed in a fluid. The buoyancy force is equal to the weight of fluid displaced by the object. Buoyancy can have significant effects over a wide range of completion and workover activities, especially in cases in which the wellbore and tubing string contain liquid and gas. Any change in the relative volumes or fluid levels will change the buoyancy forces.
