GRANDOIL began the research, development, and manufacturing of our first-generation EKM® MPD System in 2013, achieving a milestone commercial deployment in April 2014 for CNPC in the Tarim Basin. Through years of dedicated engineering and control system optimization, we have advanced the technology from Generation 1 to Generation 7. Today, GRANDOIL provides comprehensive onshore and offshore MPD drilling services to China’s major operators, including CNPC, Sinopec, and CNOOC.
| Onshore MPD operations since 2014 | Offshore MPD operations for Jackup rig since 2019 | Offshore MPD operations for semi-submersible platform since 2022 |
GRANDOIL operates an extensive fleet of 32 complete EKM® MPD systems, having successfully delivered specialized drilling services for more than 400 wells since 2014. Grounded in this vast field experience, the company has established a comprehensive framework of proprietary EKM® MPD engineering standards, operational guidelines, and rigorous safety requirements to ensure flawless execution.
1. MPD Personnel and Crew Qualification Requirements
▲ First Aid
▲ IWCF or IADC
▲ EKM® MPD drilling experience
▲ H2S
▲ SCBA (self-contained breathing apparatus)
2. Contingency Plans
▲ Plugged EKM chokes manifold | ▲ EKM® MPD chokes washed out |
3. EKM® MPD Drilling Operation Procedures
▲ Load/Unload Equipment Procedures | ▲ Rig up/down Equipment Procedures |
4. Onsite EKM® MPD Drilling Orientation
For the rig crew and 3rd parties on location, detail:
▲ EKM® MPD drilling operation procedures and contingency plans | ▲ Radio communication protocol |
No EKM® MPD operations may proceed until all operational members are fully clear and aligned on all MPD procedures.
5. Risk Analysis during EKM® MPD drilling
▲ Poor communication | ▲ Release of trapped gas and/or hot mud |
▲ Poor communication with MPD crew during mud tank operations and critical valve manipulation (rig choke manifold, standpipe, and BOP). | |
