We’re thrilled to announce our second webinar! Join us for a complimentary presentation by Oscar Gabaldon on June 25, 2026 at 10 AM CST. 

Recognized as a SPE Distinguished Lecturer for 2025-2026, Oscar will share insights on The Future of Well Construction: An Adaptive Process for Real-Time Well Design Optimization with Managed Pressure Drilling.

Please find the abstract below, along with a link to register for the session.

In high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) reservoirs and deepwater exploratory wells, uncertainty often leads to over-engineered designs and increased operational costs and challenges. Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) techniques offer cost-effective solutions to mitigate risks and enhance operational efficiency. Early implementation of MPD in the project life cycle yields significant benefits such as improved safety, risk management, and operational efficiency. This presentation emphasizes the value of integrating MPD into well design optimization, highlighting its potential to reach target depths, reduce casing strings, and manage uncertainties effectively. It discusses case studies showcasing cost savings and operational benefits, outlines enablers of MPD integration, and proposes new guiding criteria for a systematic and integrated approach to optimize well design while considering operational implications and cost benefits.
