Landmark Drillworks is a geomechanical software suite developed by Halliburton Landmark, designed for petroleum engineers, geologists, and drilling teams. It enables analysis of subsurface conditions, pore pressure prediction, geomechanical modeling, and well planning to mitigate risks like drilling hazards, optimize mud and casing programs, and reduce costs in complex reservoirs. The software integrates with other Halliburton tools like OpenWorks and DecisionSpace 365 for enhanced data management and real-time decision-making.

Key Features of Drillworks

  • Pore Pressure and Fracture Gradient Analysis: Uses seismic, well log, and geologic data to build geopressure models, helping predict and prevent issues like kicks, stuck pipes, or lost circulation.
  • 3D Visualization and Modeling: Supports importing horizons, faults, and surfaces for holistic 3D views of wellbore data (e.g., depth, lithology, ROP, flow rate).
  • Real-Time Monitoring: Includes AI-driven event detection, predictive insights, and collaborative tools for on-site adjustments during drilling.
  • Modules:
    • Drillworks Pro: For single-well pore pressure and geomechanical analysis in deviated wells.
    • Drillworks ConnectML: Machine learning-based uncertainty management for dynamic well planning.
    • Integration with Pressworks for centralized storage of geomechanics data.

Version 20.3 Specifics

Version 20.3.01 (September 2025 Update) introduces enhancements over prior releases like 20.2 and 20.1.0.37, focusing on improved 3D importing, bug fixes, and better integration with machine learning for hazard prediction. It builds on the 5000 series (e.g., 5000.8.3) by streamlining workflows for deviated wells and real-time operations. This update aligns with Halliburton’s emphasis on AI and connected data for operational efficiency.
