Baker Hughes Award

Last Thursday Michael attend an award ceremony for Baker Hughes and he sent me some pictures. So I thought I would make a blog post about it and asked him to tell me a little about the award...and well...what he sent to me was a long paragraph that was basically Greek to me...so in hopes someone else will understand it I will post it....



"For the second consecutive year, Baker Hughes Drilling Fluids was recognized for its industry-leading technology at the World Oil Awards banquet on October 16th. The awards are an annual recognition event for Best-in-Class achievement in industry service and technology categories. Baker Hughes Drilling Fluids took home the Best Production Technology Award for its MICRO-CURE cased-hole remediation system. MICRO-CURE is designed to eliminate common near-wellbore damage mechanisms, allowing increased production rates and maximizing Operators’ return on investment. It was designed using BHDF’s advanced Mesophase technology to provide the industry’s most effective cased-hole remediation fluids solution. MICRO-CURE was selected for the award over several noteworthy finalists in the Best Production Technology category. A third-party advisory board, comprised of 17 senior industry executives and academics, and The Next Generation committee, comprised of 16 up-and-coming leaders in the petroleum industry, judged the nominees. BHDF’s TERRA-MAX high-performance water-based fluid system was a finalist in the Best Fluids category. Congratulations go to all of BHDF personnel who were instrumental in the development and successful introduction of these technologies.

I was there to represent the entire team who worked on this project."
