Automatic Drilling System

Automatic Drilling System

The ADS (automatic drilling system) utilizes the control capabilities of a PLC with an integrated HMI screen. The result is a powerful system which is easy to operate and safe.

ADS controls the drilling tool speed and location based on input from an encoder coupled to the drawworks. Input from a dead line transducer is used to control and monitor speed of motor or weight on bit. Input from a mud pressure transducer can be used to control mud motor pressure delta as a drilling parameter.

The ADS control functions include: weight on bit, rate of drilling and mud motor pressure delta. The system includes dual limits for alarm and shut down which operate independently of the function control set points. Do contact us for further sales enquiries.
