i-DRILL® is a highly accurate predictive modeling system for analyzing complex drilling operations and developing optimized drilling program solutions that reduce risks and lower drilling costs. It is the industrys most powerful, pre-well planning analysis resource, and it is capable of optimizing the total drilling process including bit selection, optimization of operating parameters, design of the bottom-hole assembly (BHA) and precise placement of each individual BHA element.
Offset well data is brought to life through the integration of comprehensive drilling data into a virtual drilling world created using powerful computer workstations.
This approach allows SMITH to accurately identify the root causes of inefficient and damaging drilling behavior, and then allows Smith engineers to objectively and precisely evaluate multiple approaches for correcting the problems using the highly sophisticated i-DRILL dynamic finite element analysis system.
