FlexB2D® 2.0 Technology

 


ACHIEVE CONFIGURABLE AND CONSISTENT BIT AND BHA ENGAGEMENT

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.

2.0 Enhancements

FEATURES

ADVANTAGES

OUTCOME

Full stand control

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 enagement variances

Off bottom time, well cycle time, and BHA failure is decreased

Survey on the fly

Decreases flat time/off bottom time spent waiting for surveys before drilling operations can resume

Reduced time to target saves money

Off bottom RPM reduction

Automatically slows the top drive to help prevent harmful drillstring vibrations

Lower well cycle times due to fewer unplanned trips caused by premature bit/ BHA failures

 


Reduces Failures and Repairs

• Lowers risk of damaging downhole tools by reengaging the bit in a controlled andrepeatable manner

• Reduces torsional and lateral vibration

• Automated zeroing helps ensure accuracy and consistency

Lowers Operational Costs

• Less costly bit and BHA issues

• Improved consistency drives lower cost per foot

• Avoid unplanned trips

Accelerates Well Programs

• Automated staging to 9 operator defined drilling setpoints ensure consistent execution

• Reduce transition times from connections to full drilling rates

Reduces Human Variability
