X-PAD OPTIMIZER®
(Patent Pending)
AKITA Drilling’s walking rigs offer our new, patent pending X-Pad Optimizer® developed to reduce the total time required for well-to-well moves on a drilling pad. The X-Pad Optimizer® evaluates the locations of all the wells on a pad; both to be drilled and prior drilled wells. A rig walking path is provided which reduces the total rig walking time by use of an optimized order of wells to be drilled and rig walking movement directions.
