Where in the Middle East are you most active, and what growth plans do you have for the company in the region?
Halliburton has been active in the Middle East for over 75 years with operations in the majority of countries. We are a service provider in collaborating with customers to help them maximise their asset’s value and deliver the lowest cost per barrel OE.
What are your objectives for ADIPEC this year?
ADIPEC is a great place to showcase how Halliburton’s processes and technologies can help customers get the most out of their reservoirs while focusing on lowering the overall cost per BOE. The Halliburton booth will showcase our technologies that customers can use to solve challenges and our technical team will be on-hand to collaborate and network with attendees.
How successful do you think ADIPEC will be this year, given the current downturn in the regional market caused by low oil prices?
Year after year ADIPEC has increased in attendance, which Halliburton views as a sign of the importance and growth of our industry. Despite depressed oil prices, it’s critical to remain engaged in industry conferences to exchange ideas, discuss technologies and meet with customers.
How has business for your company been this year? What are your plans and goals for 2017?
This year has been challenging for both service companies and operators. Halliburton has taken advantage of the market conditions to develop closer relationships with our customers and set a new standard for collaboration and efficiency. We are believe that this approach, combined with our continued research and development activities, will pay dividends as the market begins to correct.
What are you showcasing at ADIPEC this year?
The Acoustic Conformance Xaminer Service -Uses hydrophone array technology to locate, identify and characterise leaks and flow vertically and radially around the wellbore and behind pipe in real-time. The array triangulates on the sound/flow source in or around the wellbore. The radial locator has proven invaluable in some wells that have been logged by identifying which annulus or component of a completions system is leaking.
Endureâ„¢ Motor Technology – Enhances motor reliability. The Endure motor technology features a proprietary metal helix reinforcement that controls vibration and prevents overloading the stator elastomer.
EquiFlow® Autonomous Inflow Control Device – Utilizes a simple, innovative dynamic fluid technology to differentiate between fluids flowing through it in order to help maximize oil production, delay the flow of unwanted fluids into the horizontal wellbore, and reduce cost and risk of handling unwanted fluid at surface.
Geo-Pilot® Duro Rotary Steerable System – aimed at increasing drilling efficiency with higher ROP and tripping speeds; provides accurate well placement with enhanced BHA dynamics and less formation damage.
Uplift® Mature Fields Service – A collaborative approach which identifies and delivers the right combination of solutions to help operators maximize well productivity and achieve the asset’s full economic potential.
Cruzer™ Depth-of-cut Rolling Element – Features a rolling element on the bit, designed to minimize torque and wear and optimize placement during drilling operations.
SPECTRUM Real-Time Coiled Tubing Services– Combines intervention and diagnostic services to help operators monitor and optimize job performance in real time, for greater efficiency, increased reliability, and higher return on investment.
