Before requesting a quotation

Prepare information that can change the recommendation.

The fastest discussion is not the one with the shortest message. It is the one that includes the conditions that rule unsuitable options in or out.

  • Describe formation changes rather than naming only one rock
  • State finished hole diameter and target depth
  • Identify the current rig, compressor, pump and drill string
  • Confirm the required connection and circulation method
  • Separate required performance from preferred performance
  • Include quantity, destination and target delivery date
