新工具（硬件和软件）正在促进更快、更深/更长和更准确的钻探，后者瞄准产油层的中心以增加产量。

美国陆地钻探公司 Patterson-UTI 和 Helmerich and Payne 正在使用技术来指导程序和设计。

Patterson-UTI 认为，最好的分析来自于吸收和处理最广泛的信息。为此，他们开发了 HiFi Nav（高保真导航）和 REX（规则引擎交换）等服务，后者是一种基于云的实时警报系统，可汇总来自日常钻井报告、EDR 和钻井控制系统的数据。

New tools—hardware and software—are facilitating drilling that is faster, deeper/longer and more accurate, the latter zeroing in on the heart of pay zones to increase production.

U.S. land drilling companies Patterson-UTI and Helmerich and Payne are using technology to inform procedures and design.

The best analysis comes from assimilating and processing the widest range of information, according to Patterson-UTI. To that end, they have developed services such as HiFi Nav (High Fidelity Navigation) and REX (Rules Engine Exchange), the latter a cloud-based real-time alerting system that aggregates data from daily drilling reports, EDRs and drilling control systems.
