Identify and mitigate risks in the drilling environment
Known as a prime culprit in many drilling problems today, shock is the sudden input of energy from impacts of the bit, BHA, or drillpipe with the wellbore. Vibrations result from these shocks.
Rapid and continuous vibration can result in fatiguing of the drillstring connections to the point of twisting off. This is why many drillstring failures are the result of cumulative fatigue due to vibration and why there are regular inspection periods.
Drill more productively and overcome shock and vibration issues with Schlumberger solutions. See the related materials to obtain more detail.
DVD: Training Module 1 identifies risks, and Training Module 2 explains how to mitigate them.
The 2008 Drilling Tools Quick Reference Guide will help with the selection and use of our services to drill more productively. This booklet is a go-anywhere guide to every Schlumberger drilling and measurement tool offered today. At the back of the guide, you will find fold-out shock and vibration flow charts.
