Reactive versus proactive drilling: introducing the AMC BOS™

Content While no one would argue that fixing things as quickly as possible when they break is important, few realise the high costs associated with solely practising this mode of operation.

Solid results: Managing risk with drilling fluids

Drilling fluids are composed of a wide variety of chemicals.
