HAL-Exxon Closed-Loop Drilling Cuts Time 15%
The project integrated rig automation, automated subsurface interpretation, and real-time hydraulics, setting a new standard for well construction, reservoir contact, and operational efficiency while advancing the FutureWell initiative.
The project utilized Halliburton’s LOGIX orchestration and Sekal’s DrillTronics to create an integrated closed-loop system.
This resulted in a 15% improvement in reservoir section completion time and a 33% reduction in tripping operations.
This innovative approach not only enhances drilling efficiency but also sets a new benchmark for well construction performance.
The collaboration aims to unify subsurface insight and automation, ensuring precise well placement even in challenging conditions, which is crucial for optimizing resource extraction in regions like Guyana.
