SoftRide Is Your Rough Drilling Solution
Oil and gas drilling is a hostile activity. Billions of dollars are lost each year to non-productive time and one of the major contributors is excessive shock and vibration. Shock damping is where we can help.
- Enhance your drilling ride in any situation
- Mitigate the harsh ride of agitators
- Reduce shock, vibe and destructive harmonics in the BHA
Introduction of SoftRide as part of the bottom hole assembly (BHA) has the potential to reduce non-productive time (NPT), increase the mean time between failures (MTBF) of expensive sensing electronics within the nonmagnetic drill collars, while maintaining retrievability of the entire tool string. SoftRide is cost-effective insurance against the threats of rough drilling environments.
SOFTRIDE® is a cartridge-based ‘rough drilling solution’ designed for retrievable and non-retrievable MWD systems.
