Cloud-based MPD hydraulics planning with controller response prediction.
Build engineering plans grounded in physics, refined by operational data.
Evaluate MPD concepts against formation pressure profiles. Determine optimal mud weights, surface backpressures, and equipment requirements. Generate technical feasibility documentation for operator and regulatory review.
Displacement schedules for mud rollovers, surge and swab analysis for safe tripping, managed pressure cementing procedures, and connection flow-to-pressure tables. Complete pre-job packages ready for field execution.
Pre-job prediction of automated choke controller behavior under planned operating conditions. Understand how the control system will respond before equipment reaches the rig site. This capability is unique to Gradient.
Operational matrices, influx management envelopes (IME), kick and loss scenarios, tolerance calculations, and response procedures. Generated directly from your well plan data.
Steady-state hydraulics built on API RP 13D with extensions for MPD-specific calculations.
Bingham Plastic, Power Law, Herschel-Bulkley, and Robertson-Stiff. Select the model that best fits your fluid system.
Track multiple fluids simultaneously through the wellbore during displacement, cementing, and pill placement operations.
Temperature-dependent rheology corrections based on wellbore thermal profiles. Critical for deep wells and HPHT applications.
Trip speed optimization to maintain annular pressures within the drilling window during pipe movement.
Runs in any modern browser. Works offline for rig-site use with no internet connectivity. Syncs when connection is available.
Full unit system support. Switch between metric and imperial at any time without re-entering data.
Automated engineering reports and regulatory documentation generated directly from your well plan.
Import actual well data to refine friction correlations and rheology corrections. Each project improves the baseline for the next.
