FlexB2D® 2.0 Technology

Failure Prevention Technology

Staging drilling setpoints after tagging bottom is often inconsistent and can cause drilling dysfunction. H&P transformed this common multi-step task into an automated and configurable process with FlexB2D® technology.

Now, with FlexB2D 2.0 operators can realize even more efficiencies than were available before. FlexB2D 2.0 technology performs automated zeroing of the weight-on-bit (WOB) and differential pressure setpoint and helps ensure proper contact with the formation. Automated, configurable, consistent bit engagement ultimately reduces BHA failures and decreases time to target.

• Full stand control means you can return to bottom from any point during a stand after engaging bottom (sliding or rotating), improving back to bottom times and lessening exposure to manual bit engagement variances

• Surveys on the fly decrease flat time/off bottom time spent waiting for surveys before drilling operations can resume

• Off bottom RPM reduction automatically slows the top drive to help prevent harmful drillstring vibrations

FlexOscillator® Technology

By automatically oscillating the pipe to reduce axial friction, we help improve slide execution and rate of penetration (ROP)

• Improved motor yield and dogleg consistency

• Toolface control

• Choose the number of wraps and RPM - forward and reverse

• Automatically maintain initial wraps

https://www.helmerichpayne.com/technologies/flexoscillator-technology

FlexTorque® Technology

H&P's FlexTorque® technology actively responds to torque fluctuations by adjusting top drive RPM to help mitigate stick slip and other BHA failures.

• Mitigate drillstring vibration from stick slip that can lead to BHA damage

• Stick slip mitigation with active control technology

• Reduce wear and tear on downhole equipment

• Reduce trips for increased safety and reduced emissions

• Decrease time to target

• Identify drilling dysfunction

https://www.helmerichpayne.com/technologies/flextorque-technology

Formation Top Detection

Pattern recognition of gamma-ray signatures allow us to identify rock formation changes while drilling to help ensure kick-off is at the optimal point.

Receiving comprehensive information early on allows you to verify the geology so you can make proactive decisions

• Updates kick-off and landing points based on geology

• Amends drilling roadmap for optimal execution of drilling parameters

• Provides a better understanding of when hazardous zones will be encountered

StallAssist® technology

By increasing bit and BHA reliability, this technology can help decrease sidetracks or lost in hole occurrences and increase motor and bit longevity, translating into more footage drilled per BHA and reduced time to target.

• Dynamic, real-time calculations

• Reduce premature BHA failure

• Software-based system with no downhole tools required

INFORMATION NEEDED FOR DETECTION OF A MUD MOTOR STALL

• Driller enters maximum operating and stall differential pressure from the motor manufacturer for rotary and slide drilling.

• Control system monitors the differential pressure based on the performance limits entered and the rate of exchange in differential pressure to determine when a stall has occurred.

DrillScan® Software

WELL PLANNING

3D visualization provides a better understanding of wellbore positions and its ellipsoids of uncertainty along with its proximity to nearby wells. Combined with the Collision Avoidance module, the software provides anti-collision calculations to minimize risk while optimizing well trajectory design.

WELL INTEGRITY

The Casing Design module allows the user to optimize the well architecture, select casing sizes and grades, simulate loads, and calculate packer-tubing forces. The casing deformation and stand-off capability calculates casing stand-off as well as the reconstruction of cased-hole trajectory, due to the deformed casing in the wellbore.

BHA & BIT ANALYSIS

Our BHA & Bit Analysis modules provide quick and comprehensive 3D predictions of the directional behavior (build/drop rate, turn rate) of the BHA, allowing for optimal design and equipment selection to reduce failure rates.

DRILLSTRING MODELING

The Torque & Drag module is an advanced software solution based on stiff-string calculations that increase the success of drilling, casing and completion operations through the anticipation of critical mechanical loads. The Drillstring Fatigue Analysis simulates fatigue and stresses based on the well trajectory profile, drillstring description and operational history.

DRILLING DYNAMICS

The Vibration Modal Analysis module provides drillers with critical rotation speeds and weight-on-bit (WOB) to avoid decreasing BHA integrity. The Stick-Slip module's custom mitigation technique can help save significant drilling time and prevent costly failures when compared to the traditional mitigation methods.

DrillScan® Software

Drilling practices alone are not enough to accurately deliver a high quality wellbore, as success is equally dependent on the accuracy of the wellbore survey. H&P Survey Management delivers advanced, real-time MWD survey corrections to enable precise well spacing, enhanced placement within formations, and better knowledge of offset wellbore locations.

Automated Geosteering

MAXIMIZING RESERVOIR CONTACT

Maximizing reservoir contact in unconventional laterals and horizontal drilling requires several moving parts across engineering and geology teams. With so much uncertainty in both the actual bottomhole location of the well, and the location of the payzone, staying on target can become a moving target.

H&P‘s Automated Geosteering solution removes the manual burden of correlating gamma ray logs and instead uses real- time measurements of geological properties to update the well plan instantly, helping ensure that the borehole accesses the correct geology.

As our industry continues to innovate and automate, eliminating once manual tasks, there will also be a reduction in inconsistencies due to human variability. Reliable interpretations translate to maximized reservoir contact and substantial production gains.

• Integrated drilling and geology platform allows you to quickly respond to unexpected geology

• Automated interpretations remove subjectivity and enable more consistent results

DRILLSCAN® SOFTWARE IDENTIFIES DRILLING DYSFUNCTION CAUSES IN COMPLEX, MULTILATERAL ERD WELL

Image
An operator in the North Sea faced a lower completion lock-up 800m above total depth (TD), followed by a stuck pipe event in an ERD multi-lateral well. In an initial effort to push the completion down to TD, all slack off weight and torque margin were used. Since no improvement was observed, the decision was made to pull-out. However, the string remained stuck and despite the rig efforts to free it, the lower completion had to be cut and left in hole. H&P’s DrillScan® technology team performed an in-depth post-analysis, reviewing all available data to identify what might have caused the lock-up event. The data provided was used to simulate the downhole conditions undergone by the completion with the DrillScan genuine stiff-string model. The results and conclusions pointed to string dysfunctions: suboptimal tripping and lubricating/ backreaming practices (BHA POOH) led to repeatedly exceeding the screens yield strength (lower completion RIH). H&P’s DrillScan software was a...
