Nabors' DrillSmart® automatic driller software features patented technology and uses proprietary equations and advanced algorithms that mimic intuitive decision-making by experienced drilling personnel. The result is improved weight on bit (WOP) and delta pressure (DP) control, which can lead to more consistent rate of penetration, less wear on the bit and mud motor and potential elimination of trips.
Self-optimizing algorithms allow the DrillSmart® technology to instantaneously adapt the drilling dynamics of the rig as the geology changes. A combination of physical controls and an intuitive touch-based user interface enables the driller to be productive as soon as the system is installed.
The Nabors DrillSmart® system is applicable regardless of well type and features multiple configurations compatible with Nabors SmartRig™ drilling rigs.
Additionally, the DrillSmart® automatic driller system tightly integrates with the new state-of-the-art Rigtelligent™ control system. When the DrillSmart® automatic driller and Rigtelligent™ controls systems are used together, the driller is able to optimize performance without switching between application screens. The control system uses operational scripts to drill a stand down, then raise to a predetermined height to set slips or to automate tripping to a pre-determined height with a load.
