Achieve critical insight on fundamental components of BHA design with reliable, repeatable results by using Innova’s augmented BHA Analysis feature. ⚙ 🔍 Drillers & engineers can evaluate if BHAs can achieve their objectives before they go downhole, with the ability to: ✔Assess required build rates, likely rotary trends & forces BHA will encounter ✔Avoid twist offs by optimizing BHA design to reduce drilling-related forces ✔Actively reduce downhole failures by avoiding known vibration-inducing drilling parameter windows & track real-time data in relation to these parameters Innova’s BHA Analysis function is an intuitive, integrated tool that’s simple to incorporate into your existing workflow for use before and during every run on every well. Be sure to reach out to find out how Innova’s BHA Analysis tool can help you improve efficiency and reduce costs – link in the comments below 👇 #bhaanalysis #directionaldrilling #drillingsoftware #oilandgas #drillingperformance

Deflection Tools: Downhole Motors with Bent Subs A downhole motor with a bent sub was a common method for deflecting wells until replaced by steerable motors. The bent sub is run directly above the motor and its pin is offset at an angle of 1-3 degrees. The bent sub has a scribe line cut on its outside body (casing) above the pin offset. This scribe line is used to orient the BHA in the required direction. The orienting sub allows single-shot surveys to be taken to confirm the orientation of the BHA. Deflection of the wellbore occurs when drilling is carried out with no surface rotation to the drill string. The drill bit is forced to follow the curve of the bent sub. The degree of curvature depends largely on the bent sub-offset angle and the OD of the motor. When the required angles (inclination and/or azimuth) are obtained, this BHA is tripped out and replaced with a rotary assembly.   Stay tuned for more about Directional Drilling (D. D).

Introducing the Detritus Destroyer(TM) by Black Diamond, a cutting-edge downhole fluid optimization tool designed to efficiently control the flow of LCM (Lost Circulation Material), ensuring uninterrupted drilling operations. The patent-pending design features precision-engineered inlet and outlet filter screens on either side of a robust mounting, which forms a tight seal against the ID of its dedicated sub. This innovative configuration ensures optimal performance while minimizing pressure drop and enhancing drilling efficiency. Flow optimization fins direct mud to the inlet screen and also act as the primary method of LCM breakdown. Knife (triangle) shaped blades on both upper and lower screens ensure LCM is broken up along the entire flow path. Larger pieces that are not broken up are captured in the lower, outlet screen. The Detritus Destroyer(TM) is a powerhouse when it comes to handling all major types of LCM. Acting as a vigilant filter screen, it captures oversized LCM particles and circulation debris that could otherwise jeopardize or obstruct lower BHA components. This means fewer interruptions, less downtime, and significant cost savings.

#Downholemotors are commonly employed to rotate the drill bit during drilling operations. The first turbo drill was invented back in 1873. A turbine motor comprises several components: a multistage vane-type rotor and stator section, a bearing section, a drive shaft, and a bit rotating sub. Each "stage" section consists of a rotor and stator with identical profiles. In this design, the stators remain fixed and are locked within the turbine body, directing drilling mud to the rotors attached to the drive shaft. As the rotors turn, they drive the rotation of the drive shaft, ultimately causing the drill bit and sub-bit to rotate. #mudpump #OilFieldEquipment #OilFieldServices #Drillingequipment https://buff.ly/428wooY

Coretrax's Activated Drilling Scraper (ADS) reduces rig time and increases debris recovery. The ADS remains dormant in the drill string until hydraulically activated by dropping a steel ball at surface, effectively eliminating the requirement for a dedicated scraper trip to prepare casing ID prior to setting the liner hanger, saving the operator valuable rig-time. The robust design features high torque premium connections, making it suitable for heavy duty drilling BHAs in both vertical and horizontal sections, while its blades provide 360° coverage for effective removal of debris.

Each of our machines is a tailored response to needs of precision and speed in deep drilling. The IMSA deep hole drilling machine MFTB 3000/110EVO is dedicated to cylindrical workpieces that must be drilled on their rotation axis, more specifically, this machine has been developed for aeronautical materials, martensitic stainless steels in particular, such as X30CrMoN15-1 and 17-4Ph among others. Materials like these make deep drilling quite a difficult process requiring specialized solutions.   This machine configuration also provides solutions for head and counter-head movements with double ball screws, efficient BTA-tool wear-resistance systems, oil pressure and flow rates controlled through inverters, and an oil cooling unit. All housed in an integrated layout where the auxiliary systems are placed inside the machine base, which means a high level of cleanliness in the work area.     #IMSAmachines #deepholedrilling #cncmachines

Repeat Formation Tester (RFT) RFT is a wireline run tool used to measure the formation pressures and enables collection of fluid samples from permeable formations. RFT tool can obtain 3 pieces of pressure data: 1- The hydrostatic pressure of the drilling fluid. 2- Pore Pressure of the formation. 3- The Pressure transient induced by the withdrawal of 2 small samples ( Tool has two chambers). Main Limitation: 1- It’s accurate in only permeable zones (Sandstone, Limestone). “All related information are from Well Engineering & Construction by Rabia, Hussain” #petroleum #drillingtools
