Halliburton launches HyperSteer MX directional drill bit

Halliburton has launched the HyperSteer MX directional drill bit, a shankless matrix-body bit that improves durability and maximises directional control, reducing well construction time and costs

The bit delivers longer runs and fewer trips, resists erosion and abrasion, and performs reliably in high-flow, abrasive environments.

HyperSteer MX directional drill bits utilise advanced matrix materials to resist erosion and abrasion, extend bit life in abrasive, high-flow environments, and improve efficiency and reliability during operations.
HyperSteer MX directional drill bits deliver precise steerability that maximises performance in vertical, curve, and lateral sections, and minimises well time and reduces well construction costs. The bit reduces trips, lowers exposure to unplanned events, and maintains directional precision in the most abrasive environments.

HyperSteer MX directional drill bits extend the HyperSteer portfolio and reflect Halliburton’s investment in innovative engineered solutions that maximise asset value.

“HyperSteer MX directional drill bits mark a major step forward in drilling. The technology combines the precise steerability of HyperSteer directional drill bits with a durable matrix body. It allows operators to drill longer in harsh environments and supports efforts to minimise well time and maximise directional performance for customers,” said Amr Hassan, vice president, Drill Bits and Services, Halliburton.
