Drilling Losses are Becoming More Frequent

Based on decades of Transpac Managers data, operators experienced one downhole loss for every 30 wells but we've recently seen a spike and have one loss for every 22 wells.

We want to hear from you. What do you think the cause is for this increase?

Check our four key reasons and let us know if you purchase insurance for different reasons. - Lost tools, due to sticking, are not insured under most Commercial Insurance Programs - LIH losses can have a more dramatic economic effect on smaller drilling programs - BHA replacement costs are rising and even if contractors reduce exposure by 50%, you still have significant LIH exposure - Your drilling, wireline, coiled tubing, and fishing tools can all be covered under one policy No matter the application, make sure your tools are covered on your next operation.
