Managed Pressure Drilling

Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) is an innovative drilling technique that helps control bottomhole pressure (BHP) within a safe range. Unlike traditional drilling, which primarily relies on static mud weight to balance formation pressures, MPD offers a more flexible approach by enabling real-time control over multiple pressure-related parameters. This ensures wellbore stability, reducing the risk of formation fluid entering the well, significant fluid losses, and other well-control problems.
