Precision and reliability in pressure-control drilling equipment can mean the difference between a successful well and costly downtime. Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) operations require equipment that can handle extreme pressures, maintain wellbore stability and optimize drilling performance. However, not all MPD chokes and manifolds meet these high standards.
Many drilling contractors struggle with inefficient, unreliable pressure control systems, which lead to delays, instability and increased non-productive time (NPT). Poorly designed equipment often causes integration difficulties, slow rig-up times and mechanical failures, leading to significant financial and operational setbacks.
This is where Stasis Drilling Solutions leads the industry. With USA-based in-house manufacturing, Stasis delivers superior MPD chokes and manifolds that ensure exceptional quality control, faster deployment and seamless integration. Unlike competitors relying on outsourced production, Stasis guarantees precision-engineered solutions that enhance drilling efficiency and reliability.
MPD is a precision-driven drilling technique that gives operators real-time control over wellbore pressure, preventing kicks, losses and instability. Without it, operators face serious risks, including:
Unlike conventional drilling, which relies on static mud weight, MPD dynamically adjusts wellbore pressure using advanced choke and manifold systems. These systems serve as the control center, allowing drillers to adjust fluid flow in real time. Some of MPD’s many benefits include:
This is why drilling contractors turn to Stasis Drilling Solutions for precision-engineered MPD chokes and manifolds that ensure maximum reliability and efficiency.
Many MPD drilling companies rely on third-party manufacturers, leading to quality inconsistencies, supply chain delays and limited customization options. Off-the-shelf MPD chokes and manifolds often require costly modifications and complex rig integration.
Stasis solves these challenges by exceeding standards and leading the industry. Here’s what sets them apart:
Efficient MPD operations depend on reliable, precise and adaptable pressure control equipment. Many standard chokes and manifolds fail to manage pressure fluctuations, react slowly or wear out quickly, causing costly downtime and inefficiencies.
Stasis Drilling Solutions has redefined MPD technology by developing high-performance equipment with cutting-edge automation, modular design and real-time monitoring capabilities—even in the most challenging drilling environments.
The Hornet MPD Manifold provides greater pressure management control, allowing drillers to fine-tune wellbore pressure precisely, ensuring optimal performance in all drilling environments. Available in single and dual-choke configurations for greater flexibility, its compact design reduces setup time and space requirements.
Unlike generic oilfield drilling chokes, Stasis’ MPD Choke is built specifically for MPD, ensuring tighter pressure control, superior durability and seamless system integration. Its 3" trim size is ideal for high-flow applications and the 5,000 PSI maximum working pressure is designed for demanding MPD operations. The reversible tungsten carbide gate and seat extend equipment lifespan and reduce maintenance costs.
With IMPACCT™, operators achieve unparalleled automation, eliminating manual pressure adjustments and enhancing overall well control. The drilling efficiency is greatly improved with multiple control modes and simultaneous multi-choke operation, while its integrated data logger captures instant wellbore analysis.
One of the most significant challenges in MPD drilling is detecting fluid influxes and losses as they happen. Stasis’ Flow Measurement System offers ±0.10% mass flow accuracy, the capability to handle flow rates up to 2400 GPM—ideal for high-volume MPD operations—and instant feedback to MPD control systems, allowing for rapid pressure adjustments.
In MPD operations, pressure control is everything. Stasis Drilling Solutions sets the industry benchmark with its USA-built, in-house-manufactured MPD chokes and manifolds. For drilling contractors and MPD drilling companies looking to improve well control, reduce NPT and optimize drilling efficiency, Stasis is the clear choice.
