Services > Drillstring Fatigue

DrillScan has implemented fatigue management methodology in our advanced torque & drag & buckling model. This unique methodology combines for the first time a complete stiff-string model of the whole drillstring (ABIS software). This robust model allows to reduce greatly the computational time, and therefore allows real-time monitoring of fatigue evolution.

• Assess stress distribution within drill pipe in order to determine the zones of highest risk according to fatigue damage
• Determine drill pipe stress history while drilling
• Compute drill pipe cumulative fatigue damage

• Assessing and tracking the cumulative fatigue damage of drill pipes while drilling
• Minimizing the risk of drillstring failures in complex wells through better drill pipe stress monitoring
