Advanced Pressure Control Improves Kick, Loss Detection

Closed-loop circulating provides pressure control in many drilling and completion applications for which conventional fluid return systems are inadequate. These systems redefine well control with advances in event detection and management and new capabilities for acquiring geophysical and petrophysical data. Pressure control while drilling and completing a well is fundamental for exploration wellbores and in development wells for reasons of economic viability. In all cases, risk mitigation and the safety of personnel, the environment, and the rig are paramount.
