COMPASS
Rock properties, torque and drag, cost, and the location of existing wells can all cause potential problems and affect the optimal well trajectory. Designed for both oil companies and directional drilling contractors, COMPASS™ is the industry’s premier application for directional well path planning, survey data management, and anti-collision analysis enabling engineers to steer the bit into the profitable pay zone. Whether simple or complex, COMPASS directional path planning software can optimize drilling trajectories quickly based on cost, torque and drag, or anti-collision criteria. When carrying out infill drilling, the software’s well path planner can automatically recommend the most appropriate well to sidetrack, saving days of costly trial and error analysis. Set up customized anti-collision scans interactively while planning, surveying, or projecting ahead. Set up warnings and automatic email notifications to alert users.

TADPRO
Today’s more prevalent extended-reach directional wells mean that tubulars are exposed to greater amounts of torque and drag (T&D). If this torque and drag is not evaluated, this can result in stuck pipe, pipe failures, and costly fishing jobs. TADPRO, the most comprehensive torque and drag software in the market, removes many of the risks of a drilling program, completion design or specific tool operation. Limits in the length of a horizontal based on specific friction factors can be determined. The ability to get needed weight to a liner-top packer can also be evaluated. With the ability to analyze forces downhole, rig equipment specifications for torque and hookload can be predicted. With unparalleled user-friendliness and graphical outputs in the industry, TADPRO provides both versatility and accuracy in its calculations. The software also integrates advanced features that make it extremely easy to use and allow results to be interpreted effortlessly.

Autodriller Pro Control System
Helmerich & Payne's Autodriller Pro Control System is an advanced drawworks control technology designed to enhance drilling performance by smoothly managing block velocity and regulating inputs from differential pressure, torque, and weight on bit (WOB). This system seamlessly transitions between WOB and differential pressure controls, maintaining consistent bit engagement without the need for manual gain adjustments. By automatically adjusting to the most critical parameter in real-time, Autodriller Pro reduces axial oscillations, leading to higher rates of penetration (ROP) and improved reliability of bits and downhole tools. Field implementations have demonstrated significant performance improvements, including increased ROP and reduced drilling time, contributing to lower fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
