First of all an acre is 208.7 feet on each side or an area of 43,560 square feet. Our goal is to determine how many cubic feet of mud will be in this area, so we need to convert the 3 inches into feet. 3 inches / 12 inches/foot = 0.25 foot now we calculate how many cubic feet, acre area = 43,560 sq feet X 0.25 foot = 10,890 cubic feet. Number of gallons in a cubic foot = 7.48. Now all we need to do is multiply to get the answer - 10,890 cubic feet X 7.48 gallons/cubic foot = 81,457 gallons of drilling mud!

What is absolute spread in a rolling mill?

Simply put, absolute spread in a rolling mill is the difference in the width of the stock we put in and the width of the finished piece. For instance, if a bar goes in and is rolled to reduce its thickness and it is 4 inches wide when it goes in and is 10 inches wide when it comes out, the absolute spread of the rolling mill in this operation is 6 inches. (The maximum output width, 10 inches, minus the input width, 4 inches, equals the absolute spread, 6 inches.)
