AmphionIntegrated Drilling Control System
The Amphion integrated drilling control systemNOVOS – enabled: The NOVOS reflexive drilling system provides unmatched control, consistency, and value as the industry’s only reflexive drillingsystem, automating repetitive drilling activities and optimizing your drilling program. The open automation platform allows drillers to focus onconsistent process execution and safety, and benefits operators by optimizing drilling programs. Custom apps help configure NOVOS specificallyfor your crew and processes.Advanced technology: The Amphion integrated drilling control system is a high-availability integrated rig control system for managing,controlling, and monitoring rig floor equipment in independent and activity-based operations. The system is designed to allow operators to focuson drilling, tripping, and stand-building processes by providing an efficient and intuitive rig floor command center.Interactive controls: The Amphion integrated drilling control system is interactive through the use of color-graphic data and control screensviewed on any of the Amphion touchscreens integrated into the operator workstations. Touchscreens allow the driller, assistant driller, orpipehandler to supervise and control all drilling-related functions.Multi-tool control cabinet: The main elements of the system are the multi-tool control cabinet, which houses control modules and networkdevices, one or more operator workstations, and one or more control modules to drive the rig equipment. All modules include an Amphion toolcontroller, communication hardware, and user software interface functionality. The design avoids single point failures through a robust networkwith redundant touchscreens running in parallel.
