Secure Drilling
The Secure Drilling™ System
The Secure Drilling™ System is a closed-loop system which analyzes available drilling data to detect kicks or losses, and automatically manages backpressure at the surface to control influxes or losses. The System allows the volumes to be kept as small as possible – a micro-influx or micro-outflux. The System is designed to incorporate existing drilling and pressure control equipment with minimal upgrades and equipment additions.
In its most basic form, the Secure Drilling System allows the Driller to “see” on screen real-time changes in, and deviations from, expected behavior in flow and pressures. The Driller can use the technology to interpret these changes and effect control on the situation through computer-controlled equipment that makes adjustments in the flow regime in response to the changes in downhole or surface conditions. The Secure Drilling System specifically allows the well to be drilling overbalanced, near balanced or underbalanced, enabling each section of the well to be optimized based on specific downhole conditions.
