Drillworks® Software Family

Improving Exploration and Drilling Performance

Pre-drill, real-time and post-drill geopressure and geomechanical analysis are proven methods of improving exploration and drilling performance.

The Drillworks® family of software is the industry’s most powerful tool for understanding and managing this complex geopressure and geomechanical environment.

A flexible suite of advanced tools, Drillworks software provides field engineers, geologists and other industry professionals with a quick, easy-to-use, reliable resource for many critical applications. With Drillworks software you can:

drillworks
  • Accurately forecast and address pore pressure, fracture gradient and overburden gradient at single or multi-well locations
  • Plan optimum well paths, casing programs and mud programs
  • Improve drilling efficiency
  • Increase safety and avoid costly problems such as kicks, stuck pipe, lost circulation and blowouts
  • Reduce casing-related costs and contingency casing design
  • Optimize hole sizes for maximum protection and production

Based on methodologies derived from DEA-sponsored Joint Industry Projects and
field-proven—by customers and through our own service operations—Drillworks software provides critical data that can significantly improve your exploration and drilling performance.
