Reduce Drilling Uncertainties
During drilling, abrupt changes in pore pressure and wellbore stability can cause substantial issues when encountered without preparation. Schlumberger multidiscipline experts can provide upcoming event/risk predictions that enable you to continue drilling without costly delays or incidents. These same geomechanics experts can help you choose well placement and trajectory options to optimize recovery.
Schlumberger reservoir characterization can reduce uncertainties and risks as you drill.
Schlumberger also provides real-time drilling geomechanics services, informed minute-by-minute with downhole data as acquired. An Operation Support Center (OSC) team monitors progress, predicts and communicates upcoming events/risks, and is always available to provide support, offer advice, and access a wide range of expertise as the situation demands.
Predrill pore pressure can be predicted using fit-for-purpose seismic velocities with a velocity-to-pore-pressure transform calibrated to offset wells.
A real-time model using actual well data helps accurately constrain predrill pore pressure and fracture gradient models.
Optimizing well location and trajectory helps in making better drilling decisions.
Modeling and forecasting borehole stability and using this predrill knowledge in real time.
