Safe Influx announces successful rig trial of integrated Weatherford MPD and Safe Influx Automated Well Control technologies 09 Apr 2021 Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) and Automated Well Control technology has been completed. Following months of preparation by Weatherford, Safe Influx and Finesse Control Systems (who build the Safe Influx equipment and develop the logic programming), a series of pre-agreed tests were successfully performed on Weatherford’s test rig in Houston, to demonstrate and verify the integration and functionality of both systems. The combination of Weatherford Victus™ intelligent MPD and Safe Influx Automated Well Control systems provides automated secondary well control which will allow wells to be drilled and constructed with the highest level of efficiency and integrity.
