In drilling operations, every second counts during a well control event.The Stab-A valve is a small but critical piece of safety equipment designed to protect both crew and well. Purpose:A drill pipe safety valve that can be quickly stabbed into the top of the drill string during a kick to prevent uncontrolled flow from the […]

Recently faced an ESP shutdown due to a broken pump shaft. This type of failure stops production instantly and often points to deeper issues such as:-Bearing wear or seizure causing shaft fatigue-Excessive vibration from imbalance, sand, or gas locking-Abrasive or corrosive fluid damage-Torsional overload from pump blockage Key lessons:-Monitor motor amps, vibration, and performance trends […]

In this video we observe a critical issue on the rig floor where the drawworks drum is overheating or possibly burning due to excessively high rotation speed What likely happenedThe drawworks which controls the raising and lowering of the drill string appears to have been operated at unsafe RPMs This may be caused by-Sudden release […]

After a well is drilled and completed, we need to know what’s coming up from downhole. That’s where flowback begins. Flowback is the process of letting fluids (mud, water, gas, oil, and sometimes sand) flow back to the surface after stimulation or pressure testing.It helps us check well integrity, clean out the wellbore, and measure […]

Natural gas plays a crucial role in the global energy mix — but how do we actually get it from deep underground to your stove or power plant? Here’s a simplified step-by-step look at the process:

It is a bit that has completed the initial stages of manufacturing but is not yet ready for field use. The process begins with forging or casting the steel body, followed by precision machining to shape the legs, cut fluid channels, and prepare the bearing pockets. Cones are manufactured separately, fitted with milled teeth or […]

Behind every successful drilling operation is a team of hardworking roughnecks who make it all possible. Their job is demanding — physically, mentally, and technically — yet absolutely vital to keeping operations running smoothly and safely. Why is the roughneck role so important?-Core of the drilling crew — Roughnecks handle drill pipe, operate tongs and […]
