Today, Drillers and Drilling Engineers are faced with significant challenges in effectively managing drilling parameters and mitigating risks associated with drilling dy...

Indeed, some simultaneous torque-drag-buckling calculations are presented and allow to properly take into account the additional contact force generated in a post-buckli...

The fast computation of the frequency analysis can provide efficient and accurate predictions and, therefore, could be employed to optimize the BHA design and drilling p...

WHAT COULD 2-4 ADDITIONAL WELLS PER YEAR MEAN TO YOUR BOTTOM LINE? Contact us for more information on how our FlexRig® Fleet can help you achieve better drilling outcome...

This work is novel because it combines a ground based, near-well, magnetic measurement with an airborne derived IFR-1 model. This allows for a greater reduction in posit...

This paper describes some of the challenges to understanding and ultimately automating drilling processes using models. Examples of models used to solve industry problem...

64% reduction in the average torque standard deviation, indicating a smaller severity of torque swings Intermediate Section BHA Count 66% reduction in total intermediate...

ADIPEC is one of the largest and most prestigious events in the oil and gas industry and is a great opportunity to connect with a vast number of our customers and peers...

Correctly evaluating the risk of BHA, casing and/or completion strings getting stuck or locked-up when RIH can ultimately provide a template for ultimate reduction of no...

Already, the methodology has solved challenging directional performances issues, generating significant savings and optimizing the learning curve process. The model is a...

H&P had set the industry standard for safety as measured by Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) for almost 20 years. Unfortunately, we continued to experience Serious...

Viable interpretations are simultaneously visualized in real time as paths on a novel stratigraphic misfit heat map, where they may be corroborated against valleys of mi...

The hybrid AMV offers distinct advantages for geomagnetic data collection in offshore environments. The low cost compared to a seaborne or airborne vehicle allows AMVs t...

This paper should provide help to engineers who seek to improve the accuracy of casing wear prediction and hence improve casing wear management. It presents a new way of...

SKILLED ENGINEERS ENHANCE THE WELL DELIVERY PROCESS, WHILE MEETING SAFETY AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS Helmerich & Payne's Advanced Well Engineering team offers a compreh...

Advanced modeling and simulations optimize drilling operations and increase well integrity by providing in-depth analysis for well planning, well integrity, BHA and bit...

At H&P we dedicate the month of April to actively promoting vehicle safety in all forms. Our goal is to increase awareness of key topics like distracted driving, fatigue...

AutoSlide technology was used for 88.5% of the lateral section. Significant increases were seen in both lateral onbottom rotating rate of penetration (ROP) and lateral s...

Thunderstorms are electronically monitored on the platform for lightning strikes, because offshore drilling rig masts and crane booms are normally the tallest structure...

Directional surveys acquired by Measurement While Drilling (MWD) are subject to many errors that are not easily recognized by traditional Quality Control (QC) procedures...
