What does static conditions in bottom hole pressure equal?

In the context of well control, static conditions at the bottom hole pressure represent a state where the fluid within the wellbore is not changing in motion – this indicates that there are no active inflows or outflows. Under these conditions, the bottom hole pressure is primarily derived from the hydrostatic pressure of the fluid column in the wellbore.

Hydrostatic pressure is determined by the weight of the fluid column above the measurement point and is a fundamental component in calculating the bottom hole pressure. The hydrostatic pressure is influenced by the density of the fluid and the height of the column, which leads to its ability to balance other forces acting on the well.

The other options add variations to the hydrostatic pressure that relate to dynamic conditions or additional pressure factors that are not applicable when discussing static conditions. For instance, adding parameters like SICP (Shut In Casing Pressure) or SIDPP (Shut In Drill Pipe Pressure) introduces pressure components that are relevant only in dynamic or transient states of pressure, thus making them inappropriate for static conditions. Therefore, the correct understanding is that static bottom hole pressure equals only the hydrostatic pressure, as it solely reflects the weight of the fluid column without any additional active pressures.
