Reelwell has received an OTC Spotlight Award for its multi-gradient system. The system uses a high-density fluid in the wellbore annulus above the bottom hole assembly; and a lighter active circulating fluid that enables MPD operations with zero surface pressure in well annulus. Benefits include safer drilling operation, reduced well cost, and increased horizontal reach.
