Halliburton launches new tech designed to advance drilling capabilities, extend depth

(WO) — Halliburton today introduced its iCruise^® Force intelligent, high-performance motorized rotary steerable system. iCruise^® Force, when coupled with Halliburton's LOGIX™ automation and remote operations platform, is designed to expand drilling capabilities to optimize performance and maximize asset value for operators.

Powered by high-performance mud motors, the system enhances efficiency with expanded rig capabilities and extended drilling depths in complex formations with the goal to help customers achieve faster penetration rates, lower drilling costs and more precise wellbore placement.

"Our priority is to customize solutions to overcome diverse challenges in harsh environments to maximize asset value for our customer base," said Jim Collins, vice president of Halliburton Sperry Drilling. "We will continue to expand our intelligent portfolio, to drive efficiency, consistency and reliability."

When combined with the LOGIX platform, iCruise^® Force further enhances precision and operational efficiency. This combination facilitates more accurate steering and superior control, and helps operators mitigate non-productive time and streamline the well construction process.
