Coiled-Tubing Drilling (CTD) has journeyed through decades from its hype in the 1990s to its current status - a technology full of potential yet often misunderstood. Despite its significant successes in regions like Alaska and the United Arab Emirates, CTD battles misconceptions and unrealized expectations. The technology promises advantages such as a smaller footprint, high mobility, and rapid operations, but these benefits have sometimes led to exaggerated expectations.

Drilling faster can increase risks that can cause catastrophic damage to drilling equipment downhole. Learn how we're cost-effectively empowering drillers to mitigate all types of vibrations in the latest issue of Oilfield Technology #oilandgas #energy https://lnkd.in/gCKZFjVV Check out the article by our very own Mr. Guy Feasey starting on page 18.

Inclination values can be of great importance to monitor wellbore directional properties, both while drilling and coring 🔢   Our unique Logging While Coring tool includes a near-bit inclination measurement, in real-time 💻   In a recent field trial with Norwegian operator Aker BP ASA, the inclination measurement was used in an anti-collision application to ensure that the wellbore being drilled and cored by CoreAll wasn't drilled towards the main wellbore. Real-time data enabled us to perform the operation safely and successfully ✅   #CoreAll #IntelligentCoring #AkerBP

To wrap up our discussion about shallow, narrow pressure margin ERD wells, let's take a look at one possible liner-running scenario, and see if a design change in the 8.5" section would help with getting pipe down successfully. Maybe you're facing a similar issue? Talk to HXR Drilling Services - Extended Reach Drilling or SafeKick about how we can help provide solutions for your upcoming ERD, Complex, Horizontal, Narrow-Margin, or Deepwater wells. #oilgas #oilandgas #oilfield #directionaldrilling

This week, let's take a look at ways to reduce ECD at the Bit/BHA by bypassing some of the flow to the base of the DP. This is done every time we UR a section, but the bypass area (UR tfa) isn't always given enough attention, leaving some of the potential benefits on the table. Similarly, there are benefits to bypassing some of the fluid in non-UR holes as well; particularly in slimhole applications. Give it some thought.

Advanced Drilling and Well Technology captures the vast developments that have occurred in well technology over the past several decades. The 10 chapters focus on applications related to many of the field-related challenges being faced today, such as deepwater and high-pressure/high-temperature wells, as well as emerging technologies like managed pressure drilling, expandable casing, coiled-tubing drilling, and multilateral wells. #drilling #well #oilandgas #WeAreSPE #energybooks https://buff.ly/3KvTn5c

We've been talking about Managed Pressure Drilling in the last few modules, but that leaves the question, "How do I get pipe down? What might that scenario look like?" So, this week we'll take a look at Managed Pressure Casing operations using the same well we've been discussing and compare it with a Conventional run. We'll also take a brief look at an example Floated Managed Pressure Casing run. Will it match YOUR well? Probably not (unless you're drilling in the area this well is based on...), but hopefully it gives you ideas for some of the more difficult wells on your schedule. Give it some thought.

The D-Tech Rotary Steerable team recently worked with an operator in the Midland Basin who wanted to drill several extended-reach laterals faster than sections using conventional BHAs. The D-Tech tool drilled 45,596 feet and reduced drilling time by more than 30 hours on each run compared to offset wells. This, combined with the fact that the tool drilled over a mile in one downlink, allowed the operator to save $150,000 and downtime. Contact us to learn more about how you can reduce downtime and maximize performance with the #1 independent rotary steerable tool on your next well. Superior performance. Exceptional reliability. The option you can trust. #dtechdrillingtools #performancedrilling #dtechrotarysteerable #nextgenerationrss #continuousimprovement #rss #rotarysteerable #dtech #dtechdrilling #drillingtools #houston #directionaldrilling

As you can probably tell, we have a few upcoming wells that may require some interesting casing designs, so it has been a good opportunity discuss the effect Tight-Clearance Liners will have on Surge, ECD, Hookload, and Running Speed, etc. In this Module, Part III of the series, we'll take a brief look at how the size of the "Slimhole" liner will affect the NEXT hole section. Anyone who has run many of these will know right from the start that one of these two designs isn't going to work - let's see just how bad it will be...

In Part II of the Surge/ECD Effect on Hookload series, we'll look at the use of a fluid bypass tool and how it they can increase running speed while reducing surge on the formation.
