• Helps demonstrate effect of surface actions on entire downhole well profile, fully integrating multiple, simultaneous effects
  • Calculates and continuously displays pressures at all well depths, thus clarifying critical relationships
  • When used to simulate drilling, consequences of complex changes in pore pressure, formation strength, hydraulics, geometry and string movements can be assessed and empirically corrected
  • Simulates well conditions with the BOP open or closed
  • Optimized data entry
  • System includes extensive preloaded rig, tubular and fluids databases
  • Default data values permit rapid development of well scenarios, but can be over-written for more refined scenario development
  • Batch entry, using copy and paste from Excel files, enables entry of detailed or actual well data to facilitate replication of complex field scenarios
  • Simulations are controlled using easily accessed controls located on the main simulator screen
  • Well sketch provides continuous display of well geometry
  • Well sketch shows scaled diameters and depths
  • Sketch updates to display results of transient simulations
  • Depth-based graph is linked to the well sketch and displays critical downhole pressures and pressure limits using equivalent density units
  • User-defined time-based logs can be used to record progress of simulations and identify relevant operational events
  • Real-time Kick Tolerance Analysis
  • Automated sequence controls enable simulation of drilling, tripping, and fluid displacement processes without specialized skills
  • Fully transient simulations make it easy to “drill the well on the simulator”
  • Simulation data is automatically recorded for easy play back and can be optionally saved for later reference
  • Optimized mathematical models allows for fast simulation of complex well scenarios
