Enter the Kelly pipe dimensions, material, and other required details into the calculator to determine the total weight and other parameters.

Kelly Pipe Calculation Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the total weight of the Kelly pipe.

Total Weight = Kelly Length * Pipe Weight

Variables:

  • Total Weight is the total weight of the Kelly pipe (lbs)
  • Kelly Length is the length of the Kelly pipe (ft)
  • Pipe Weight is the weight per foot of the Kelly pipe (lbs/ft)

To calculate the total weight, multiply the Kelly length by the pipe weight.
