Halliburton : Introduces iCruise X™ Intelligent Rotary Steerable Service

"We are excited to release iCruise X that extends the operating limits of traditional rotary steerable systems, so operators have the durability to deliver accurate, smooth 3D wells, and laterals faster in harsh drilling applications," said Rami Yassine, vice president of Sperry Drilling.

The intelligent rotary steerable system includes advanced electronics, sophisticated algorithms, multiple sensors and survey packages, and high-speed processors to support drilling automation. Through LOGIX™ Autonomous Drilling Platform, iCruise X automatically drills the well in real-time, to provide operators with faster, consistent, and repeatable drilling performance.

A large operator in the Middle East ran iCruise X to drill a curve section in a tough and abrasive formation. The system drilled the curve section in one run and beat the record for the basin by 30 percent saving the operator valuable well time.
