With operators under pressure to deliver more energy with fewer resources, predictable drilling performance is more important than ever. Discover how a unified digital workflow can turn drilling data into better decisions and consistent execution—providing the foundation for autonomous drilling and more predictable, profitable, and productive wells at scale.
By acquiring 100% of Ventura’s outstanding shares, SED Energy Holdings would scale its business into a combined $1 billion company backed by a $1.3 billion contract backlog focused on deepwater drilling, shallow-water tender rigs, and seismic acquisition.
The US Department of Energy has awarded more than $99 million to 21 projects that will advance geothermal development through field-scale testing of next-generation technologies and exploration drilling programs across the US.

The domain expertise and technologies in the oil and gas industry such as integrated project planning and operating, extended-reach drilling (ERD), high-pressure/high-temperature drilling tools, multilateral drilling and completions, geomechanics, flow and thermal dynamics modeling, and artificial intelligence have been fueling the ongoing march for new records on ERD… -
The objective of this paper is to review selected completions to provide insights for adoption of multilateral technologies, including lessons learned, operational experience, and recommendations.
