Rotary steerable systems in the Gulf of Mexico gain acceptance

Weber et al review Gulf of Mexico (GOM) examples where mud motors and rotary steerable systems have been used under similar conditions (i.e. depth, rig and mud system). The RSS and bit are viewed as one system, because the success of one is directly affected by the other. This investigation compares...

Zusammenfassung:Weber et al review Gulf of Mexico (GOM) examples where mud motors and rotary steerable systems have been used under similar conditions (i.e. depth, rig and mud system). The RSS and bit are viewed as one system, because the success of one is directly affected by the other. This investigation compares Spears' anecdotal statement with industry data to quantify RSS benefits in the GOM.
