🚀 Real-Time Torque and Drag Monitoring

In the realm of drilling operations, real-time torque and drag monitoring stand out as crucial components for enhancing efficiency and mitigating risks. One of the primary features offered by Corva is the automation of friction factor generation. This innovation streamlines the process by running all inputs through a sophisticated STRING model to calculate friction factors based on various parameters such as survey data, well-work trajectory changes, and mud properties. Unlike the manual processes of legacy toolkits, Corva's system automates these calculations, capturing crucial data points like pickup slack, rotating weights, and tripping speeds systematically. By overlaying these data points on the friction factor trends, operators gain valuable insights into deviations, enabling Timely corrective actions and optimizations.

Pros:

• Automates friction factor generation for enhanced accuracy.
• Systematically captures critical data points for comprehensive monitoring.

Cons:

• May require initial training for seamless integration into existing workflows.

🛠 Calibration and Model Updates

To ensure precision and reliability, Corva's operational team calibrates models automatically within the initial drilling phase. Consequently, the physics engine continues to run in the background, plotting and analyzing data seamlessly. This calibration process lays a robust foundation for the real-time monitoring system, empowering operators to make informed decisions based on accurate and up-to-date information. By offering detailed casing specifications in real-time and tracking changes in parameters as operations progress, Corva's solution facilitates efficient equipment running while minimizing potential disruptions.
