Managed Pressure Drilling

Offshore Drilling

Drilling offshore presents numerous challenges, including well instability in transition zones, pore pressure uncertainties, and restricted drilling windows through depleted zones. Beyond Energy MPD addresses these issues with advanced equipment, automated technology, and expert engineering services.

Tier 1 – Rotating Control Device only

Atlas

Package overview:
Beyond provides multiple distinct Rotating Control Device (RCD) solutions for onshore and offshore drilling activity. Our RCDs include best-in-class bearing assemblies and sealing elements that are interchangeable among Beyond’s RCDs.  The ATLAS series can be used to drill onshore and offshore wells.

ATLAS RCD (Rotating Control Device)

  • Initial component for MPD Readiness
  • Seals around the drill string
  • Redirects annular flow
  • Allows for a closed-loop flow system
  • Reduce online rig-up time, easily convert from Conventional drilling to a closed annulus
  • Compact and modular design for faster rig up
  • Additional safety barrier during drilling/cementing operations
  • All returns from the well are diverted away from the rig floor, in a safe and controlled process

Tier 4 – NITRO MPD™

Package overview:
The NITRO MPD™ package is Beyond’s flagship MPD package that enables the drilling of complex, ultra-narrow window wells. The NITRO MPD package includes all necessary components to optimally manage the surface backpressure in MPD operations and has the industry’s fastest rig up and rig down time.

The compact 20’ manifold building (winterized in Canada) contains a dual-choke manifold, pressure relief valve, automated backpressure control system, coriolis flowmeter with flow bypass, and an integrated nitrogen backpressure control system.

Nitro MPD (Dual Choke)

  • Full managed pressure system
  • Hydraulic model enabled control
  • Manipulate ECD downhole
  • Tight window wells and flow drilling
  • Early kick detection
  • Dynamic FIT
  • Fingerprint pore pressure
  • Downhole loss detection
  • Secondary choke backup
  • Nitrogen backup in case of lost power
  • Trip safer with automated pressure control
  • PRV equipped to protect the wellbore

Other packages

Automated pressure backup system

Our nitrogen backpressure management system automatically maintains surface backpressure during static periods in case of pump or choke failure. The automated backpressure control system has been designed by actual users who have in-depth knowledge of MPD operations and was created to deliver rapid and accurate pressure control while providing flexibility to operate under a wide range of conditions.
