The U.S. drilling market continues to develop, and operators and drillers are pursuing deeper and farther target areas than ever before. One thing has not changed-the goal is to complete these intervals faster at the lowest possible cost. The entire drilling process needs to be optimized, the weight transfer is effective when drilling, the torque is low, and the hole is safe and trouble-free when entering and exiting the hole.

To ensure this happens, in addition to ReedHycalog's Tektonic™ Pursuit™ series of drill bits, we have also developed Pursuit™ reamer, which is our second-generation well conditioning tool specially designed to meet the requirements of the US market.

Wellbore conditions have become an important consideration, as the frequency of take-offs decreases and the likelihood of accumulation of tight spots, rock walls, and cuttings beds increases. By using the Pursuit reamer in your drilling assembly, the wellbore will be slightly enlarged, thereby effectively adjusting the wellbore and reducing the torque generated by the tubing string, while effectively agitating the cuttings bed and removing deposits.

By using our proprietary multi-functional advanced placement software (MAPS™) developed in-house, the optimal placement in the drill string can be verified to maximize tool efficiency.

To confirm that you have the correct configuration for your specific application, the Pursuit reamer can be fitted with any ReedHycalog industry-leading polycrystalline diamond composite (PDC) tool.

Only ReedHycalog provides this series of tool options to ensure that it provides the most effective and cost-effective solution to today's drilling challenges.

Russ Lockley, BHE Product Line Director, said: "The Pursuit reamer is another tool that will allow us to continue to provide incredible value to our customers, while allowing us to stand out as a technology supplier."
