optiWOB
Unique value proposition (UVP)
The HMH optiWOB smart module minimizes weight on bit (WOB) variations and boosts the performance of the drill string compensating system. In all heave compensator systems, there is friction. This comes from cylinder pistons, wire sheaves, guide rails, etc. This friction force works against the heave motion and results in variations in weight on bit (WOB) when drilling. WOB variations lead to several disadvantages: Reduced rate of penetration (ROP) Excessive wear on drill bit High WOB setting or risk bit lift off Fluctuations in rotation torque HMH optiWOB smart module counters the friction in the passive compensator system by using the Active Heave Compensator (AHC) already installed on most HMH compensators and RamRig™ deliveries.
Key Benefits
- The HMH optiWOB smart module stabilizes weight on bit (WOB), increasing the rate of penetration (ROP) and significantly reducing drilling time.
- By minimizing WOB variations, the module reduces drill bit wear, extending bit lifespan and cutting down on replacement expenses.
- The optiWOB smart module integrates with existing Active Heave Compensator systems to mitigate risks of high WOB settings and prevent bit lift-off.
