The oil and gas industry is witnessing a significant transformation with the advent of drilling rig automation. Traditional drilling operations are being upgraded with a...

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...

This survey has been conducted annually since 2007 and reflects feedback from more than 4,000 respondents that use products and services of global oilfield suppliers. Th...

H&P LifeBelts were developed to highlight those activities with the highest likelihood to result in a SIF. Establishing and honoring buffer zones and barricades is an ex...

The dynamics is then calculated by applying a time-integration scheme. The dynamic model is applied to a real case of a quasi-vertical well with field measurements of do...

A sensitivity analysis was then conducted on several BHA types and lengths, considering different boundary conditions in vertical and horizontal wells. Directional model...

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...

Analysis of low frequency axial drilling dynamics from block velocity input to surface weight on bit (SWOB) or differential pressure outputs, shows significant regional...

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...

An advanced Archimedes method with all fluid circulation effect has been developed. By tackling the problem of circulating fluid in the drill string using two different...

The configurable and consistent bit engagement enabled through H&P's FlexDrill software helped ensure optimal contact with the formation, resulting in a 61% average rate...

These analyses can constitute guidelines about stabilizer design to minimize vibrations. The novelty of this work is to introduce the geometry details of the stabilizers...

Once the tasks of laying down casing and drill pipe were completed, the derrick was then lowered and replaced. The crew was cleared to resume drilling ahead. "Yeah...

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

With directional drilling in today's market, well placement is of ever-increasing importance in the process of successfully drilling a well. Well placement by Measuremen...

The use of time-domain modeling to jointly characterize the behavior of downhole axial and surface oscillation tools introduced in this work allows a better understandin...

A "trip" is the process of pulling drillpipe from the wellbore or running the pipe back to the bottom of the wellbore. The manual work performed during a trip...

In addition, these results show the significance of string friction along the drill pipe. Next, the use of a downhole instrumented sub, along with wire drillpipe technol...

One of the largest and longest operating onshore drilling and technology companies in the world, known for our signature. FlexRig® fleet, unmatched efficiency gains, and...
