CASE STUDY
AlphaAutomation rapidly spreads standardized drilling practices across fleetsRESULT
AlphaAutomation deployed in January 2019 on two rigs. Four-month learning curve to optimized
times for the initial deployment shown below:
PD575
CHALLENGE
SOLUTIONUtilize AlphaAutomation™ to automate routine drilling
connection activities.• Bottom to slips • Slips to bottom

Reduced variation in weight to weight processes saves time.
Results demonstrate immediate savings with no costly learning curve to meet the performance of an established operation.
AlphaAutomation is being utilized to capture the learnings on the existing rigs, producing Predictable and Repeatable Performance across the fleet.
