Page 3: Job Planning
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 Job Planning 1.1 BHA Design Stabilization 1.1.1 All PowerDrive BHA’s should have at least 2 stabilizers. The first stabilizer should be located on the PD control collar or directly behind it. The 2 should be 30-40 feet behind the first. -
Page 4: Hydraulics
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 1.2 Hydraulics Optimizing Hydraulics 1.2.1 The Bias Unit uses the mud flow to activate the steering pistons or pads, exerting a side force on the bit. This operational principle requires a pressure drop between the steering unit and the annulus, which can be achieved by a combination of bit nozzling and a flow restrictor inside the... -
Page 5: Flow Restrictor Use And Availability
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 Flow Restrictor Use and Availability 1.2.3 If the desired pad pressure cannot be achieved by nozzling the bit alone, a flow restrictor can be used. A PowerDrive Flow Restrictor provides additional pressure drop at the RSS tool to increase pad pressure and force without affecting the bit TFA. -
Page 6: Tool Preparation
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 Tool Preparation 2.1 Reviewing Tool Paperwork The Rotary Steerable Outgoing Systems Test (OST) paperwork is a valuable document for the Directional Driller. This paperwork will be provided by the Extreme Equipment Rental coordinator by the time tools arrive on location. - Page 7 PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 PDCU-xx Tool Configuration Report 7. Tool Firmware Version – The tool firmware version is entered into the downlink timing sheet because different versions have different downlinks available. 8. Downlink Bit Period – The bit period the tool is initially configured to accept. Remember, the tool will always accept 60 second bit period regardless of whether it’s in 18 or 36 second mode.

Page 12: Job Execution
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 Job Execution Tripping In / Filling Pipe There are no PowerDrive-Specific requirements on how frequently to fill pipe while tripping in. When filling pipe, it is advised to break circulation and pump at the tool’s Minimum Drill Flow for 5-10 minutes. -
Page 13: Casing Drillout
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 3.3 Casing Drillout When drilling out the shoe, keep in mind that Cement Plugs, Float Collar, Cement and Shoe Track are very different materials compared to the formation intended to drill. The bit is not designed to drill this material, especially when drilling in a soft rock environment where bits with low blade count and big cutters (aggressive design) are used. -
Page 14: Sending The Downlink
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 At any time, PowerDrive Orbit and X6 can detect the following downlinks: • Flow Downlink at 18 or 36 seconds. Verify the initial setting using the Tool Paperwork • Flow Downlink at 60 seconds •... -
Page 15: Kicking Off From Vertical
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 3.5 Kicking Off from Vertical PowerDrive tools can be used to kick off from any inclination with extensive experience in vertical kickoffs. The following points must be considered when kicking off from vertical: 1. -
Page 16: Hold Inclination And Azimuth (Hia)
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 Note: In Inclination Hold mode: • You cannot make small changes to the tool’s Steering Ratio or TF azimuth angle. • You can only steer the tool left or right by increasing or decreasing the SR in steps of 12.5%. -

PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 2. Stop the tool rotation 3. Cycle the pumps to take a survey. 4. If available, check for a good static survey by monitoring INCL_b and AZIM_b. If they deviate significantly from their acceptable values, then either continue in manual mode or do the survey again. -
Page 18: Powerv Lock/Unlock
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 3.7 PowerV Lock/Unlock PowerV mode is a vertical drilling mode using Gravity Tool Face (GTF) with a tool face of 180 degrees and a steering ratio of 100%. The result of this setting is that PowerDrive will continuously seek to drill vertical without further input from the directional driller at surface. -
Page 19: Sidetracking
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 1. After ensuring that the tool has been powered up and the correct quiet time has passed, as shown in the following chart, send command 2-29, PowerV Unlock/Engage to the tool. - Page 20 PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 2. Allow the cement plug adequate time to harden. The cement plug must be of sufficient quality and quantity. Avoid plugging the bit nozzles by washing down with a minimal flow rate until the cement is tagged.

Page 22: Cleanup Cycles
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 • Start drilling with reduced WOB and RPM to minimize potential of localized shocks to the PowerDrive Tools (often not seen on the MWD). If high levels of shock and vibration are seen, stop drilling. -
Page 23: Re-Run Evaluation
Post Run(s) Information • Was the PowerDrive Orbit the reason for pulling out of the hole? If so then it should not be rerun. • While monitoring the real-time data was there any indication that the tool was having issues maintaining toolface? Was the tool operating as intended? •... -
Page 24: Troubleshooting
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 Troubleshooting 4.1 Low Dogleg Workflow Low doglegs can occur due to Insufficient pressure drop across the pads, insufficient pad force, high RPM, stick-slip, formation effects (Soft or unconsolidated formations or strong formation push), jamming, bit selection, BHA design or tool failure. -
Page 25: Shock & Vibration
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 4.3 Shock & Vibration Too much shock and vibration can be destructive to all BHA components and needs to be actively managed to avoid costly tool damage or, in extreme cases, parts left in hole. All well planning must include a plan to deal with high shocks and stick-slip. -
Page 26: Required End Of Run Data
PowerDrive Orbit & X6 Quick Operations Guide - rev1.4 Required End of Run Data After completion of the job the Directional Driller at the wellsite is required to send in his final deliverables to their Directional Drilling Coordinator.
