Innova Engineering provides an environment for drilling and performance optimization engineers to run engineering simulations such as T&D and Hydraulics.
Drillers Hookload Plots
Hookload plots act as a roadmap for drillers, enabling identification of issues such as wellbore instability and poor hole cleaning in real-time. Identification of issues at the earliest opportunity ensures that appropriate steps are taken to address the issue, towards safer and more efficient drilling opertations.
Tension On/Off Bottom
Identify the location of sinusidal and helical buckling in the drillstrng for tripping, sliding and rotating operations. These plots provide the information the user needs to ensure that drilling & casing assemblies are suitable for the operations planned.
Apparent Weight on Bit
Friction, wellbore geometry, hole cleaning and drilling fluids are all factors that can impact the transfer of weight from the surface to drill bit. This plot shows the WOB required at surface to achieve the desired WOB downhole, ensuring optimium WOB during drilling to optimize ROP & efficiency.
Side Forces
Understanding side forces is important for minimizing wear & tear on the drill string and casing to prevent buckling and ensure smooth drilling operations. It is imperative to consider side forces to design the well trajectory & select appropriate drilling parameters to reduce lateral stresses.
