Aberdeen-based oil and gas technology company Safe Influx has debuted a tool which can detect and prevent well influxes and blowouts. The tool, called the “Safety Net”, is designed to help companies identify potential problems before they happen. The technology was developed following research showing that 70% of well blowouts resulted from human factors. Following successful simulation testing with cyber rigs, Safe Influx is planning a field test on an older drilling rig in October to demonstrate the effectiveness of the tool.
