VERO™ Automated Connection Integrity Service Exceeds Previous Running Speeds by 30%, Delivers Zero Rejected Joints

Weatherford tubular-running specialists met with the customer to discuss tubular-running goals and requirements to complete an offshore well.
After reviewing all the information, the team recommended the Vero conventional system, which automatically controls pipe makeup and evaluation until the final torque.
The team rigged up the Vero system in only 51 minutes. By comparison, rigging up traditional tubular-running equipment takes 90 minutes.
By applying real-time torque monitoring and adaptive speed control, the system successfully made up over 800 connections with zero rejected joints.
The adaptive speed-control feature of the system automatically controlled makeup and exceeded previous running speeds on the same rig by 30%.
The Weatherford team rigged down the system in only 31 minutes compared to 52 minutes using traditional tubular-running methods.
The team turned over the well to the operator.

The Vero automated connection service enhanced integrity by automating the makeup process and delivering a 2% variance of the standard deviation on final torque values.
The automated makeup process also delivered zero rejected joints out of 837 total connections.
The reduced amount of equipment and simple rig-up process decreased rig-up time by 45% and reduced rig-down time by 50% compared to traditional tubular-running methods.
