UBDPRO Description
Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD), which encompasses Underbalanced Drilling (UBD) technologies, effectively manages the pressure profile of fluids in the annulus of a well, enabling the exploration of otherwise financially unviable drilling sites. A key objective of managed pressure drilling is to minimize the risk of damage to the formation, which in turn enhances overall production; thus, aerated fluids are frequently utilized in the drilling operation. In scenarios involving hard rock, the primary aim shifts towards boosting the rate of penetration (ROP), often utilizing air or mist drilling fluids. UBDPRO, a sophisticated modeling software, simulates the intricate hydraulics of compressible fluids such as air, mist, foam, and two-phase mixtures. This advanced modeling tool aids in fine-tuning the injection rates of both gas and liquid to maintain optimal bottomhole pressure, contributing to more efficient drilling outcomes. By leveraging such technologies, operators can significantly enhance both the safety and efficiency of the drilling process.

Azore CFD
Azore is software for computational fluid dynamics. It analyzes fluid flow and heat transfers. CFD allows engineers and scientists to analyze a wide range of fluid mechanics problems, thermal and chemical problems numerically using a computer. Azore can simulate a wide range of fluid dynamics situations, including air, liquids, gases, and particulate-laden flow. Azore is commonly used to model the flow of liquids through a piping or evaluate water velocity profiles around submerged items. Azore can also analyze the flow of gases or air, such as simulating ambient air velocity profiles as they pass around buildings, or investigating the flow, heat transfer, and mechanical equipment inside a room. Azore CFD is able to simulate virtually any incompressible fluid flow model. This includes problems involving conjugate heat transfer, species transport, and steady-state or transient fluid flows.

DEPRO
DEPRO is an all-encompassing program designed for torque, drag, and hydraulics analysis in drilling operations. This software aids users in mitigating various risks associated with drilling and completion tasks. By forecasting the limitations in horizontal well lengths based on friction factors, DEPRO offers recommendations for rig specifications and assesses the necessary weight for setting a packer. In terms of hydraulics, it addresses downhole circulating pressures, surge and swab effects, equivalent circulation densities (ECD), bit optimization, hole cleaning, and volumetric displacements. With DEPRO, users can thoroughly investigate downhole hydraulic conditions and pinpoint any potential issues before actual field implementation. Additionally, it provides calculations for torque, drag, and stress, while also supporting soft and stiff string models. The software caters to various operations including drilling, back reaming, rotation off the bottom, and tripping in and out. It also features predictions for sinusoidal and helical buckling, comparisons of field data on workload and surface torque, friction factor sensitivity analysis, and assessments for packer setting, ensuring a comprehensive toolkit for drilling engineers. The all-in-one nature of DEPRO enhances operational safety and efficiency.

StuckPipePro
A stuck pipe can arise from numerous factors, primarily linked to two main types: mechanical sticking and differential sticking. Mechanical sticking often results from issues such as key seating, under gauge holes, instability of the wellbore, inadequate hole cleaning, and other related factors. In contrast, differential sticking is usually the result of significant contact forces that occur due to low reservoir pressures, high wellbore pressures, or a combination of both, acting over a considerable area of the drill string. These incidents of stuck pipe are generally regarded as among the costliest challenges faced in drilling operations within the petroleum sector, with the expenses associated with resolving them potentially reaching millions of dollars. As a consequence, conducting a thorough analysis of well data to estimate the likelihood of a drill string becoming stuck is increasingly crucial for efficient drilling management. Understanding these risks can help operators implement preventive measures and reduce downtime during drilling operations.
