Well Control on Delfi

Well Control on Delfi™ is a cutting-edge cloud-based solution that facilitates multiphase well control simulations. Harnessing the power of cloud computing and parallelization significantly enhances performance, data management, and collaboration.  

This innovative solution builds upon the robust foundation of Drillbench™ dynamic drilling simulation software and integrates capabilities from the Olga™ dynamic multiphase flow simulator. The inclusion of the Olga simulator engine enables the software to manage advanced evaluations, such as transient temperature impacts and superior PVT modeling. This powerful engine supports a diverse range of workflows, including kick tolerance, blowout simulations, managed pressure drilling (MPD) operations, and dynamic kill sequences.
