GMXSteering Assists in Well Bore Placement
• GMXSteering places well bore in best part of the reservoir for optimal fracstimulation and production
• Uses surface measurements to accurately calculate the critical rock geo-mechanical parameters • Surface measurements include rate of penetration, revolutions per minute, weight
on bit, torque and pressure
• Rock parameters include pore pressure, rock confined and unconfined compressive strength, principal and differential stress, Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, shear brittleness, natural fracture density and stress brittleness
• Information provided immediately after well reaches total depth to maximize time to manage materials, logistics and communications
• GMXSteering has been fully validated vs actual stimulation jobs and production data
Input Data and Calculated ResultsFrom the drilling data
• Weight on Bit (WOB)
• Rate of Penetration (ROP)
• Rotational Speed
• Torque
• Bit Diameter
• Differential Pressure
• Pressure at the bottom (ECD)
The following rock properties are calculated
