Drilling Contractor’s Next Live Virtual Panel Discussion is 13 February

On 13 February at 9:00 a.m. CT (GMT-6), Drilling Contractor will host a live Virtual Panel Discussion (VPD), sponsored by NOV. This live VPD is titled “Breaking Barriers: Drilling Contractors Engage on Interoperability.”

The premise of interoperable rig-based systems appeals to many wellsite stakeholders for different reasons and value cases. However, the interoperable infrastructure must be in place before leveraging any technologies using it. Please join us as drilling contractors share some pain points for a D-WIS focused panel discussion and help us navigate our journey toward drilling and wells interoperable systems.

Comments and questions to the group can be submitted either in advance at this link, or during the meeting. The meeting is supported by the Drilling and Wells Interoperability Standards (D-WIS) Group. It will be recorded and made available online for future reference.

Please join us on 13 February to explore these topics!
