Preface – Why Drilling Automation?
Focus :- Reducing Non-productive time
- Increasing Efficiency
- Safer operation
Way forward :
After successful digitisation
Automation
Rising demands
(explore deep resources)
Constant fluctuation in Oil Price

Today’s Drilling Control
Systems are directly
operated by the driller.
• No account of comprehensive well situation
• Relies on driller competence to stop and react correctly
Drilling Automation – Status quo

DrillTronics® - Drilling Automation Software
✓ Fully integrated with the DCS
✓ Operated from the Drilling Control System into which it is embedded
✓ Enable or Disable by Driller
✓ Controls the drilling machinery
✓ Objective is to:
/ Prevent incidents
/ Optimize drilling operations
Reads well conditions and operates the drilling
machinery based on the downhole understanding of
wellbore conditions.
• Automation capability performs smart tasks
improving process efficiency.
• Delivers higher levels of repeatability and
consistency across crew.
• Minimizes the risks of inadequate safety
margins or damage to the well.

DrillTronics® - Drilling Automation Software
• Calculating the safe operating
windows in real time – Safe Guards
• Then applying these windows to the
Drilling Control – Safety Triggers
• Automatic Functions
▪ Automatic start/stop of mud
pump
▪ Automatic tripping
▪ Automatic reciprocation
▪ Automatic friction tests

Equinor awarded Sekal third license April 2017 for the Semi-Submersible Songa Enabler and in January 2019 for the remaining 3 Transocean cat D rigs.
The First Use Report (Equinor) indicated increased efficiency (up to 12%) and operational consistency across all crews.
Equinor awarded Sekal the second license summer 2016
Equinor awarded Sekal the forth license October 2018 for the Mariner field in UK
Wintershall awarded Sekal the fifth license December 2018 for the SeaDrillSemi-sub West-Mira
Transocean awarded Sekal the 9th license January 2019 for the Transocean Semi-sub Transocean Spitsbergen

DrillTronics® - Digital Twin Technology based Drilling Automation Software
Combining the capability of Digital
Twin technology & Adaptive
automation results in Automated
Drilling Control (ADC) to give
ultimate client valve by making
drilling operation;
✓Safer
✓More consistent
✓Optimized & efficient
✓Predictable
Optimises the reaction of drilling machinery inline with the dynamic and changing downhole conditions
