CASE STUDY HPIDC.COM | PERFORMANCE@HPIDC.COM | +1(832)782-6800 HELMERICH & PAYNE Improving Efficiencies and Preserving Bit Life by Automating eDriller Set Point Optimization OBJECTIVE One operator recently achieved record drilling performance on a Meramec well drilled in the STACK using FlexDrillTM. The operator historically struggled with suboptimal rates of penetration (ROP) due to stick slip and whirl. This caused premature tool failures and bit damage, increasing nonproductive time and costs. They turned to H&P for a solution, and H&P recommended the FlexDrill system to enhance their drilling efficiency. The operator decided to test the FlexDrill system on one rig after learning that the continuous, automatic optimization would increase ROP and lower mechanical specifi
