14.00 The Onshore Revolution: Markets, Technologies and Responsible Development
Session Chairs: Shane Marchand, Vice President, Helmerich & Payne IDC, & Willy Brandt, Director of International European Accounts, Transocean
Onshore drilling and production activity has soared in the last couple of years, driven in large party by technical advances enabling development of unconventional resources, both oil and gas. Natural gas extracted from shale formations has become the fastest-growing source of gas in the USA, and could become a significant new global energy source. In addition, new areas are opening for development, including markets like Iraq and Kurdistan. Industry is quickly reaching the point where fully automated drilling is on the cusp of becoming a reality. This panel of operators will explore each of these topics, with added emphasis on responsible shale development.
Drilling Wells in Unfamiliar Places – US/Poland Shale Play(s) and Kurdistan, Iraq: Jeff Day, Drilling Manager – Onshore, Marathon Oil Company

(SHELL), Thomas Kipker, Bentec GmbH Drilling
The concept, design and commissioning of an innovative automated land drilling rig as result of a true collaborative approach between an E&P operator, a drilling contractor and a rig manufacturer will be outlined. The operator’s need to address challenging HSE regulations, optimization of drilling efficiency, and translation of these needs into rig specification will be highlighted. The paper will discuss both the drilling contractor’s input on rig layout and automation and the final innovative rig concept from the rig. Initial field experiences from commissioning and operating phases will be shared.
Reducing Drilling Costs by Automating Rig Equipment with Both Surface and Downhole Data: Anthony Pink, Vice President Automation Applications, Brad Applewhite, National Oilwell Varco
An outline of the automated drilling system components, architecture of the system and performance data from the field testing of the system.
Managed Pressure Drilling Safety Barriers: Emad Bakri, UB Principal Technical Professional, Ron Divine, Halliburton
MPD should be envisioned as an active well control tool. The technique maintains the integrity of well control standard much longer than the conventional drilling. MPD technology shapes the concept of maintaining two barriers the entire time of the project by including the surface pressure and the Rotating Control Device (RCD) to the drilling fluids as a primary barrier. Although MPD is proven as ROP optimization technique, its value will be seen even further in loss/kick situation as an event detection technique, not to mention the well control capability of the technique.

The Direction and Role of Standards, Regulations, SEMS and Industry Organisations in the Post-Macondo Era: Charlie Williams, Executive Director, Center for Offshore Safety, Chief Scientist Well Engineering & Production Technology, Shell Energy Resources
This presentation will review the requirements and response necessary for the industry to sustain the Licence to Drill post 2010. This will include the enhanced development and increased assurance of a competent and capable workforce. Additionally, the role of standards, regulations, and industry organizations will be discussed. There will be specific introduction of the newly formed Center for Offshore Safety and how it and similar organizations and initiatives can enhance the use and effectiveness of safety and environmental management systems that can be key to government and public confidence and support.
09.00 Panel Discussion – Licenced to Drill
Moderators: Joep Beyer, Senior Vice President Europe, Russia, Kazakhstan, KCA DEUTAG Drilling, & Dominique Dupuis, Head of Drilling Engineering, Ensco plc
Earning the trust of the public and, therefore, government, requires continual effort from the E&P industry. Issues of public and government trust have become more critical since the 2010 Macondo blowout. Further, onshore developments of unconventional resources have raised questions about the safety of hydraulic fracturing and water usage. The issue before the panel is how industry can regulate itself sustainably in the new era and win the trust of public and regulators. Further, how have industry and government reacted following Macondo? This authoritative panel will tackle these questions from the perspectives of regulator and operator, including a case history justifying a permit for Shell’s 2011-2012 drilling campaign at its Brutus TLP. Finally, IADC will discuss industry’s development of the SEMS Toolkit, designed to facilitate compliance with new US Safety & Environmental Management Systems rules.

Risk Management for Well Control – An Update on Engineering Tools: Fred Ng, General Manager, Technical Services, Wild Well Control, Inc.
Well Control Risk Management involves development of mitigation and contingency options, and is particularly critical for HPHT and deep water operations that are becoming increasingly common in many parts of the world. This presentation discusses engineering tools which resulted from development of advanced technologies in recent years. They include multiphase modeling for well plan and kick tolerance evaluation, as well as relief well planning and simulation of blowouts and dynamic kill. Case histories are presented to highlight such applications.
Attaining and Maintaining Technical Competence & Compliance – A Service Company’s Perspective & Experience across Africa: Iain Sivers, Africa Region OCS Compliance Manager, Jon Ruszka, Jamie Stewart, Baker Hughes Incorporated
Consisting of over 50 sovereign states and covering an area more than three times that of North America, the African continent is vast and diverse. Drilling activity across Africa continues to ramp up as fields are developed and exploration activities deliver a stream of notable successes. In some areas, E&P activities have been on-going for many years and have built a highly skilled local workforce managing drilling operations supported by mature infrastructure. Conversely, many of the new discoveries are in countries which have limited experience of our industry. From a technology perspective, the latest in drilling technology is frequently required. Continuously delivering operations in the range of environments across Africa to acceptable standards poses challenges. These will be discussed along with how a service company invests to build competence. The objective of this is to consistently comply with local and global operating standards for sustainable performance improvement.
Achieving First-class Safety and Efficiency Performance in Mature Fields: Case of Shallow Water Guneshli Field in the Caspian: Ramin Isayev, General Director, SOCAR-AQS

Unassigned Papers of Note:
The following paper proposals will be included in the conference if a scheduled paper becomes unavailable. In addition, these presentations will be made available in the IADC conference proceedings, should the author so desire.
Experience from Hardware-In-the-Loop testing of Drilling Control Systems: Tom Arne Pedersen, R&D Manager Drilling Systems, Marine Cybernetics
An introduction to Hardware-In-the-Loop testing methodology and the importance of third party verification. The vendors may also use HIL to test their software, but only a third party can provide proper integration testing of several vendors. Marine Cybernetics experiences from testing of in total 7 rigs involving 9 different vendors in terms of project execution, test timing and vendor cooperation and participation will be outlined. The presentation will show how HIL testing can be applied for new builds, retrofits and how it integrates with the life cycle of the vessel.
Integrating Improved Environmental Performance Into Rig Design: Natalie Wagner, Environmental Engineer, Sam Delisio, Jeremy Ogg, Niels Meissner, National Oilwell Varco
This presentation proposes a definition for “green” in the oilfield, exploring examples of how the definition applies in terms of practices and equipment. The blueprint of this low-footprint rig will couple intelligent technology with process improvements to demonstrate a sustainable approach to handling natural resources. Integrating improved environmental performance into rig design, thereby making it part of the functioning drilling system, has measurable economic benefits. The flexibility to operate in highly-regulated zones with precise drilling machines will influence contractors, operators, and manufacturers alike.
Competency Assessment for Offshore Industries: Teril Smith, President, ModuSpec USA, Inc., Ian Hamilton, Human Engineering
Guaranteeing skilled and knowledgeable personnel goes beyond training. Organizations typically resolve such issues using blanket training programs; however, training is not competency management, it is one part of it. Plus training is particularly ineffective for developing skills that the individuals cannot practice (i.e. future roles). This presentation will outline how ModuSpec together with Human Engineering resolved such a problem for an offshore drilling client by combining technical evaluations with psychometric testing, observations and behaviorally anchored rating scales to assess the competence of their employee with the specific purpose of developing plans to support individual development.
Directional Liner Drilling with a Multi-Set Liner Hanger and Rotary Steerable System: Mike Moffitt, Product Line Champion – Line Drilling, Erik Erikson, Moji Karimi, Tesco Corporation
Drilling with liners has long been recognized by the oilfield industry as a potential solution to non-productive time. This NPT is typically caused when drilling in unstable formations where hole sloughing or shifting between the time it is drilled and cased-off may result in costly installation issues, sidetracking, or hole loss. By installing the liner across the open hole as it is drilled, mitigation of these issues can be achieved while simultaneously creating a passageway for the safe removal of the BHA. By using the system shown in this presentation, this may be achieved without sacrificing highly desired real-time directional control or data acquisition. This paper addresses the testing of a directional liner drilling system that allows the simultaneous drilling of the formation and installation of the liner across the open hole.
A New High Strength Drill Pipe Maximizing Safety and Performance in Low Temperature Environment: Kamal El Bachiri, Technical Marketing Manager Middle East,Philippe Machecourt, VAM Drilling, Sebastien Mauries, Vallourec
Low temperature refers to a well environment where the temperatures are under -20°C. This environment is known for brittle failures on standard steel grades. The steel becomes brittle at low temperature or at very high strain rates. This paper presents the appropriate steel chemistries and manufacturing controlled processes required to meet safe operating industry standards and performance-driven drilling practices in low temperature environments. This includes a range of parameters to be considered by managers and drilling engineers involved with specifications when planning wells and designing drilling products for low temperature environments.
Save Time & Money on Every Trip – North Sea Case History Demonstrates the Benefits of 3rd Generation Double-Shouldered Connection: Steven Youngson, Technical Marketing Manager, Guillaume Plessis, William Ogilvie, NOV Grant Prideco, Colin Cooper, Workstrings International
The evolution of the double-shouldered connection, detailing design features of a third generation connection, showing what makes this connections performance superior to its predecessors. The benefits of this connection in terms of reduced repair rates seen in the field and the significant savings seen will be highlighted.
