WWT NRP Achieves Over 25% Torque Reduction in Wells

Executive Summary
Operator experienced torque and drag issues in a lateral well in Oklahoma.  WWT installed 237 NRPs to significantly reduce drill string friction. NRPs were repositioned after their first run to remain in the high side force areas of the well. The bit run prior to NRPs was also evaluated to compare benefits as shown in the on bottom torque and POOH hookloadplots.
