Managed Pressure Drilling Systems

Mitigate drilling hazards by controlling pressures

Managed pressure drilling (MPD) succeeds when conventional techniques are likely to fail. The MPD technique helps you to drill through narrow pore-pressure/fracture-gradient windows, mitigate kicks and losses, and minimize wellbore instability.

As the global leader in MPD technology and services, Weatherford delivers MPD solutions scaled to your needs. Our field-proven MPD portfolio includes surface and subsea rotating control devices, the semiautomated PressurePro® control system, and the automated Microflux® control system.
