Tricone roller cone drill bits from Baker Hughes maximize performance in a defined application. Our culture of continuous improvement — based on our R&D commitment to enhancing your drilling projects — achieves a higher rate of penetration (ROP) with a lower cost per foot.
We were the first company to introduce the two-cone drill bit, which was patented more than 100 years ago in 1909, launching the modern-day oil and gas industry.
Drill bit specialty products from Baker Hughes reduce drilling costs with fewer trips by successfully reaching total depth on the first attempt. The technology reduces risk associated with problematic wells, including rubble zones, lost-circulation zones, depleted reservoirs, and underground blowouts while minimizing HSE risks related to tripping in and out of the well.
Contact your Baker Hughes representative today to find out how we can help you reach total depth successfully the first time.
Fluid sampling and formation pressure measurements are essential to optimizing your well completion and production designs for maximum profitability. Baker Hughes's Pressure Testing & Sampling services deliver key reservoir characterization, while drilling, to help you improve the designs of your wells and facilities, establish reserves, and engineer the best flow assurance program for your field.
Overview
Whether it is the Dynamus™ extended-life drill bit or Talon™ Strike PDC drill bit, or our new PermaFORCE™ elite drill bit, our selection of PDC drill bits achieve maximum speed and efficiency to lower your drilling cost.
Efficiency and accuracy
The financial risk associated with proving reserves remains a big challenge. Petrophysical evaluation services from Baker Hughes reduce your economic risk by efficiently and accurately acquiring critical data throughout the reservoir life cycle.
Overview
You can depend on reservoir navigation and mapping services (RNS) from Baker Hughes to drill and geosteer complex high-angle and horizontal wells. Our precise, real-time drilling capabilities and advanced formation evaluation technologies are complemented by dynamic, interactive software and experienced RNS supervisors offering expert advice. This fit-for-purpose, multidisciplinary approach reduces nonproductive time (NPT) and maximizes production by keeping your wellbore in the pay zone.
Overview
Adaptive drill bits from Baker Hughes autonomously adjust depth-of cut to changing lithology, mitigating stick-slip with no interaction from surface. Adaptive drill bits absorb shock and help prevent damage to the bit and bottomhole assembly (BHA). Your result: extended tool life, significantly reduced nonproductive time (NPT) and invisible lost time (ILT), optimized performance, and a step change in your drilling efficiency.
Contact Baker Hughes today so we can help you lower your NPT with reliable adaptive drill bits.
Directional liner drilling can take the risk and worry out of drilling through even the most challenging trouble zones. With Directional Liner Drilling Services from Baker Hughes, you get an integrated drilling solution that lowers drilling risks and shortens the time and risk of completing a well.
Whether you are trying to drill and land liner through low-pressure zones, unstable shales, or zones with widely varied flow and pressure regimes, our integrated solutions deliver tangible benefits.
