Drilling Engineering

Drilling and well engineering are highly technical and expensive aspects of any oil and gas field development operation. Hence adequate considerations are given to the appropriate engineering design and construction as well as cost management and environmental implications of such operations.

Design for Drillability

Our DfD workflow eliminates all the snags whether they are fresh stand-alone wells, sidetracks (casing window exit via whipstock, casing section mill, cement kick-off, openhole), re-entries, multi-laterals, horizontals for mud motor or rotary steerable drilling systems.

Wellpath Design Optimization

Wellpath design optimization is an important early field development strategy aimed at minimizing risks particularly in complex or deep offshore reservoir systems. Wellbore positioning and target sizing, real-time optimization, visualization and integrated operations, Diagnostics-While-Drilling, remotely controlled steering etc are important considerable factors.

Well Design

BALMS Energy provide a complete range of drilling program design and drilling fluid analysis to support client exploration and production operations. We are also able to provide professional advice as well as represent your company during all drilling operations.

PDM Steerabe Systems

Technology development has given Drilling Engineers more choices of how to drill the well or section of well. Which method to use is sometimes not as easy question as it may appear. A good understanding of the technical and commercial attributes and limitations of each available technology is required to make the best choice. At BALMS Energy, we are able to make this distinction and proffer the best solution to specific challenges.

Steerable Motors

Steerable motors are a very effective way to drill. Some of the limitations of motor drilling are the main drivers for development of rotary steerable technology. Steerable motor drilling remains a highly effective technology and at BALMS Energy there exists a very strong focus on this technology.
