High-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) wells are defined differently throughout the industry. The UK Energy Institute’s Model Code of Safe Practice in the Petroleum Industry defines HPHT wells as “where undisturbed bottomhole temperature exceeds 300°F (149°C) and where mud weight in excess of 15.4 ppg is needed, or where pressure-control equipment over 10,000 psi is needed.”
