    MPD enables onshore efficiency and well control

    Many of today’s drilling prospects are challenging, expensive, and in some cases undrillable. Managed-pressure drilling techniques are increasingly being applied as a solution to overcome barriers and increase drilling performance.

    New tools reduce spiraling

    The implementation of new technologies in Asia-Pacific increases drilling efficiency and improves the overall value of assets.

    Conventional mooring reaches deeper

    There is a huge demand for high-spec drilling rigs, and in remote areas of the world where comparatively little deepwater drilling is taking place, extending a rig’s mooring capability is one avenue operators have taken to contend with asset constraint.

    Fracturing Technology: New propellant promises predictability

    A newly introduced wellbore stimulation tool increases the chance of fracturing success.

    High-Pressure/High-Temperature Operations: WFF reduces surface treating pressures

    High density frac fluids enable hydraulic stimulation of ultra-deep reservoirs by reducing surface pressure for topside equipment.

    Abandonment Technology Issues: Lessons learned in cost estimating

    Twenty years of decommissioning offshore oil and gas facilities creates a knowledgeable framework for estimating new projects.
