Drilling Tubular Lease Management
Petrochem Network (PCN) has in its organization experience of the design, manufacture, inspection and repair of drill string members. PCN dedication to providing quality service using the best equipment available, skilled workforce to operate it and innovative management thinking enables us now to offer the end user a solution to one of their most difficult problems:
“PROCUREMENT OF THE DRILL STRING”
End user’s engineering, purchasing, and financial & materials personnel constantly contend with:
• Operator specifications for drill string members designed to meet well programs, in which severe drilling conditions are
increasingly encountered.
• Vendor capability, delivery times and prices.
• Assurance of strict quality controls during manufacture of the product necessitating use of qualified independent third
party inspection services to review manufacture procedures, testing and classification of the final documentary data
package.
• Shortages and unjustifiable price hikes in times of high demand
• Inspection criteria to which the pipe must conform – DS-1 Category 5, Shell Squair, Chevron DESQ-1 and similar severe
service standards.
• High costs associated with Severe Service inspections and limited availability of companies suitably qualified and
equipped to perform the inspection.
• Sourcing replacement pipe in event of loss or major damage.
• Inventory control, storage and maintenance while in storage
• Historical data control required to justify contractual “Lost in Hole” replacement costs.
PCN has developed a Lease Option Program which together with our Tubular Service Program now enables us to make available to the industry a total DRILLING TUBULAR MANAGEMENT SERVICE. The PCN Lease Purchase Program module of its Tubular Management Service package provides substantive savings and simplification in the management of your rigs drill strings.
• 'Value Added' engineering support provided by Applications Engineering team.
• Understand well conditions, drilling requirements, quality issues and add value to customers’ operations by the correct
application and implementation of equipment.
• Optimization of Drill String Design – Based on proposed well trajectories and anticipated drilling parameters a suite of
software models evaluate torque & drag and hydraulics in order to optimise the drill string design for each well.
A comparison of various tubular sizes for different hole sections can be performed to determine the optimal drill string
configuration.
• Connection Analysis – Allows the analysis of tool joints and BHA connections including proprietary and non-standard
sizes. Evaluate stresses on connections when operating outside the recommended make-up torque ranges and using
non-standard dopes in order to identify potential risk areas.
• Landing String evaluation for deepwater applications giving consideration to the reduction in tensile capacity of the string
due to the effects of slip crushing.
