Faster, cheaper, safer, better. Whether drilling onshore or offshore, these four words represent the challenges and currency of success for any drilling operation. As the industry continues to see new records for faster ROP and reduced NPT, an exciting challenge of consistency within drilling performance and digitalization of the drilling value chain remain. Our industry experts will explain how our clients across continents and basins, sizes (small and large) have benefited from increased speeds of well delivery, consistency in high drilling performance and simplified well design automation. These key outcome metrics were achieved without adding organizational and technical implementation complexities, which are important pillars for seamless adoption across multi-faceted disciplines within organizations.
