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
