When avoiding drill string structural failure can hinge on something as seemingly fundamental as connection selection, mechanical design becomes an essential part of providing the optimal solutions for the complex issues you face when drilling. We regularly perform Component Design Evaluations for both operators and service companies, and leverage this corporate expertise in our Failure Analysis and Drilling Engineering service lines. Additionally, an in-house Mechanical Design group allows us to pursue the extensive research & development required for initiatives like Standard DS-1^®.
