Prirazlomnaya, the world’s fi rst ice-resistant station-
ary oil platform in Arctic waters. The Prirazlomnoye
fi eld began producing oil in suffi cient quantities to
make the fi eld economically viable after Baker Hughes
installed cased-hole completions and production
systems that included ESPs, packer systems, and
advanced safety valves, and our upstream chemical
products to produce the volumes of oil necessary to
meet the project’s economic parameters.
Baker Hughes completion and artifi cial lift systems
also enabled the fi rst dual-lift, concentric produc-
tion-injection completion in Russia’s Volga-Urals re-
gion. For this project, we designed the ESP system for
the country’s fi rst successful attempt at simultaneous
oil production and water injection in the same well-
bore. The technology made it possible to inject water
through the inner tubing string and produce oil from
the outer string with no interference or commingling
of fl uids. Our continued participation in projects such
as these will help to unlock Russia’s harsh, remote
environments.
Investing in Africa
In East Africa, we have opened new facilities in the
burgeoning markets of Kenya, Mozambique, and
Tanzania. We are investing signifi cant resources and
working closely with major universities and business
and engineering schools in the area. We also have
implemented an orientation and assessment program
as part of our recruitment process to offer young
candidates the opportunity to meet and interact with
professionals in their desired fi elds and to learn
about the industry and position responsibilities.
These efforts will help us achieve our 2015 target of
a 95 percent national workforce in East Africa who
will play a key role in developing their countries’
hydrocarbon resources.
Baker Hughes cased-
hole completions
systems, advanced
ESP systems, and
upstream chemical
products are making it
possible to produce oil
in suffi cient volumes
to make Russia’s
offshore Arctic
Prirazlomnoye fi eld
economically viable.
” Our Drilling Services in the North Sea have
enabled ROP in the Troll fi eld to double since
2007 to dramatically increase reservoir exposure
at reduced cost.”
SureTrakTM Unlocks Stranded Reserves in the North Sea
The world’s fi rst application of the SureTrak™ steerable drilling
liner technology enabled Statoil, the technology’s codeveloper, to
successfully drill through a trouble zone in the North Sea to reach a
previously unreachable reservoir and dramatically increase oil recov-
ery.
SureTrak
technology provides an alternative to more expensive
methods, such as managed pressure drilling, to drill and complete
wells through trouble zones. Unlike other liner and casing while
drilling services, this drilling liner does not require special rig mod-
ifi cations, so pipe handling and nonproductive time are reduced.
It is estimated that using the
SureTrak
technology could increase
recovery by up to 1 million barrels per well.
