Things You Should Know About Fire & Safety

 Five minutes. That’s how long they say it takes for a house to be engulfed in flames. Most people think this is plenty of time to escape a fire, and I would agree—if you're aware of the fire in time. For us, we likely had less than five minutes because our smoke detectors didn’t go off.

Instead, it was our pets who alerted us. On July 20, 2020, we experienced a house fire that started in our garage. Based on the intensity of the flames, we believe it had already been burning for a few minutes. While five minutes may seem like enough time to escape, in reality we had only moments to react.

What we learned that night was surprising: even in a brand-new home, smoke detectors are not typically installed in garages. This had never crossed our minds before; we just assumed the detectors inside the house were sufficient. Unfortunately, they weren’t. Thankfully, we escaped that night in July 2020, but things could have turned out very differently if we hadn’t been alerted when we were. Since then we have added smoke detectors to our garage area. 


This month, we want to share some Fire Safety tips that can help you keep your team at work and your family at home safe. Fire is unpredictable and without the proper alert systems and training on how to respond-- can be tragic. Enjoy this month's newsletter and thanks for continuing to Actively C.A.R.E.

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...
