Engineering module

Drilling hydraulics

Enter the mud rheology, drill string, hole program and bit; the software computes the full pressure picture of the well, before and during the run.

What it computes

Key outputs

SPP breakdown — surface equipment, string, downhole tools, bit, annulus
Bit hydraulics: pressure drop, jet velocity, HHP / HSI, impact force
ECD vs depth
Annular velocities, hole cleaning and maximum flow guidance
Flow rate sensitivity and bit nozzle optimisation per depth

Standpipe pressure against flow rate, with bit hydraulics optimisation and ECD against depth — Standpipe pressure against flow rate, bit hydraulics optimisation, and ECD versus depth.

Inputs and saved sessions

Fluid, wellbore, string and bit, and operating parameters are entered under four tabs. Multiple rheology models included. Cases are saved as named sessions with their results and reloaded later, available for all modules.

The hydraulics input tabs with rheology model, mud weight and flow rate, and a saved session loaded — Four tabs of inputs, multiple rheology models, and named sessions.
