Calculation observations

MATERIAL_PROPERTY_ASSUMPTION

The calculation uses the entered absolute material density and additive volumes. Verify supplier properties, purity, moisture, transfer loss, and actual yield.

VERIFY_CONDITIONED_DENSITY

Mix and condition under the approved mud program, then verify a representative sample with calibrated field equipment. The worksheet does not authorize a treatment or target.

Operational use warning: calculation support only. Follow the approved mud program; verify target, material properties, inventory, pit capacity, fluid chemistry, conditioning, and representative density measurements.
