Abstract:This case study shows a cooperative implementation of managed pressure drilling (MPD), logging while drilling (LWD) and rotary steerable system (RSS) technologies to prevent non-productive time (NPT) while drilling through a section with a tight pressure window in a highly over-pressured reservoir in the US. Drilling risks were proactively reduced by providing real time data transmission for reservoir characterization and identification of critical well sections.
