CONDUCTOR (1 or 2) (40’ – 300’) Prevent eroding surface sediments and
rig foundation by circulating the drilling fluid to the shale shaker.
Protects subsequent casing strings from corrosion.
Install director system on it.
SURFACE (300' - 5000') Control caving and washing out of poorly
consolidated surface beds. Protect fresh water sands from possible
contamination by drilling fluid mud, oil or gas and or salt water from lower zone.
Install BOP on it.

INTERMEDIATE CSG (1 or 2)
It depends on well depth and geology in specific area.
Primary Purpose: To seal off troublesome zones which:
Contaminate drilling fluid. Jeopardize drilling progress with possible pipe
sticking, excessive hole enlargement. Contain abnormal pressure fluids, protect
formation below the surface casing from higher pressure credited by mud.

6.3 Type of Coupling A coupling is a casing connector which is
made of casing material. Most common types of casing. Joints are
externally threaded from each end. API specification the coupling should be
of the same grade as the pipe body.
