DrillSIM:50

DrillSIM:50 is a portable real-time drilling and well control simulator. The interactive simulator is a means of delivering hands-on well control training to recognised accreditation standards.

The DrillSIM:50 includes four consoles, a touchscreen student station and a laptop instructor station which can be quickly and easily transported between classrooms and sites.

The four consoles are physical and accurate representations of drilling controls, a remote choke console, a BOP console and a manifold console.

DrillSIM Suite Manager

A DrillSIM software package license can be added to DrillSIM:50 to create a multi-station training environment. Simulations can be observed, monitored and managed from one central instructor station that provides data on the student activity and progress on each simulator.

KEY CAPABILITIES

The DrillSIM:50 can be utilised to develop and run exercises including, but not limited to:

  • Oil-based mud, bubble point and gas flash out
  • Gas expansion and migration
  • Dynamic pressures during well control
  • Formation fluid type and permeability
  • Bottom hole effects – equivalent circulating density, surge and swab
  • Horizontal and deviated wells
  • Sloughing, differential sticking, key seating, pack-off
  • Rock strength and abrasiveness
  • Choke washout and plugging
  • IADC and IWCF required malfunctions
  • Drilling and tripping

"Drilling Systems’ simulators create an extremely realistic, immersive environment, and place people on the rig in a drilling scenario. Because the graphics and scenarios are so realistic, reaction times are the same as they would be in the field. We were able to build up a comprehensive picture of the outcomes of using different phraseology in training and in the field."
