Track field response against torque, drag, and BHA critical RPM models

DrillingMetrics follows actual pickup and slack-off response against the torque-and-drag model and places field RPM beside modeled BHA critical speeds by depth.

  • Torque-and-drag response
  • BHA critical RPMs
  • Field-data comparison

Continuous model comparison

Pickup and slack-off weights are identified from the incoming data and displayed with the calculated model. This makes changes in drag behavior easier to recognize without requiring a separate manual modeling workflow for each run.

  • Generate models for BHA and casing runs.
  • Track field response from desktop, tablet, or phone.
  • Combine model deviation with configurable alert thresholds.

Add critical-speed context

BHA harmonics modeling places field RPM beside modeled torsional, axial, and lateral critical speeds by measured depth. Together with dysfunction belief and torque-and-drag response, it highlights operating ranges that warrant engineering review without replacing well-specific limits or field judgment.
