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.

Operators aren’t rushing to drill, even as the closure of the Strait of Hormuz drives oil prices up.
-
This paper presents the first global application of autonomous drilling in deepwater and the journey to reach optimal drilling parameters, integrating proprietary tools from the project’s business partners.
-
This paper describes the evolution of the operator’s initial PWC (perforate, wash, and cement) abandonment projects performed in deepwater Brazil.
-
The authors reach conclusions that the industry should define a standard testing method to improve swelling performance, including validation of repeatability, to complement existing guidelines.
