HydraGlyde System Chart
Using the HydraGlyde system, the operator drilled the production interval in 4.38 days, 1.5× faster than the average time spent drilling offset wells with OBM. The average ROP of the lateral sections (excluding the build section) drilled with the HydraGlyde system was 138.8 ft/h, a 60% increase compared with the average of seven offset wells drilled with OBM.

背景
An operator used an oil-base mud (OBM) in previous wells drilled in the Midland basin’s Wolfcamp Shale, but the resulting hauloff requirements increased overall well cost. The operator sought a solution to match or exceed the ROP achieved using the OBM without increasing hauloff or cuttings disposal costs.
