A major producer operating in the SCOOP/STACK identified inconsistent connection procedures across its fleet that contributed to excessive flat time and added to drilling costs. It deployed Corva's Rig Operations app, which tracks connection times (e.g., weight-to-weight, slips-to-slips) for day and night shifts to identify areas for improvement and then collaborate with crews to ensure proper connection procedures are consistently followed.
The Oklahoma operator worked with its day shift to cut 8.5 minutes per connection and reduce weight-to-weight times by 56%.
