    Crimped centralizer solution enables record length casing runs in ERD wells

    Casing running operations in longer Extended Reach Drilling (ERD) horizontal wells can command more rig time and add operational complexity at a critical moment in the well construction process, particularly in wells longer than 3 miles. Volant’s crimped HydroFORM™ centralizer solution is an enabling reach extension technology that improves casing running efficiency and effectiveness and is proven in some of the longest wells drilled in North America to date. When used in conjunction with flotation and rotation and active management of casing connection integrity, the solution reduces flat time and enables successful casing runs to total depth (TD).

    Field-Proven Annular Isolation Without Remedial Work

    Reliable annular isolation is a cornerstone of well integrity, ensuring safe and efficient operations throughout the life of the well. However, achieving this reliability is often complicated by persistent challenges such as sustained casing pressure, difficulty in reaching the top of cement, and isolating complex or heterogeneous formations. These issues can lead to costly remedial interventions, increased operational risk, and compromised well performance. Welltec’s Metal Expandable Packer (MEP) technology offers a proactive solution by enabling operators to design wells that mitigate these risks from the outset. Unlike conventional methods, the MEP provides a robust, permanent seal without reliance on cement, delivering superior isolation across a wide range of applications. This technology not only reduces the likelihood of remedial work but also enhances well integrity, optimizes construction efficiency, and improves long-term production performance. In this session, we will explore the engineering principles behind Welltec’s MEP solution, review its field-proven track record, and demonstrate how operators worldwide are leveraging this technology to overcome isolation challenges. Join us to learn how the MEP is transforming well design strategies, reducing operational complexity, and driving cost savings while ensuring sustainable well integrity.

    Permian Basin Power Shortage: How Oil & Gas Operators Can Overcome Grid Constraints

    The oil and gas industry is facing an unprecedented challenge: the electrical grid cannot keep pace with its soaring power demands. As drilling operations expand and electrification accelerates, grid capacity in key regions like the Permian Basin is being stretched to its limits. This imbalance threatens production timelines, operational reliability, and long-term growth. In this episode, we sit down with Caterpillar to explore why power demand is outstripping supply, the implications for oil and gas companies, and the strategies being deployed to bridge the gap. From leveraging natural gas for on-site generation to navigating competition with other industries, we’ll uncover practical solutions and future outlooks. Join us as we discuss how companies can secure resilient power infrastructure and maintain momentum in an increasingly energy-constrained environment. To watch the video, click here.
