The Wellsite Directional Controller has been developed by a directional driller with over 25 years experience in the international oil industry. After involvement with all aspects of directional drilling, including many highly complex and high profile projects, the principal data processing requirements were identified, simplified in operation and refined to create the most logical, integrated and user friendly program available today.

Frustration with the inflexibility of available software led to the development of several utilities to aid the practical tasks involved in directional drilling. This was further developed into the Wellsite Directional Controller which became a vital personal tool. The program has now been made available to those directional drillers and other members of the drilling community who have a need to rapidly evaluate the constantly changing conditions they encounter.

With the increasing complexity of today's drilling programmes the cost of lost time due to time spent evaluating data or suffering the consequences of failing to perform proper analysis due to time constraints and software complexity are enormous. The ease of use of the Wellsite Directional Controller allows a far greater understanding of well conditions than ever possible before.

All parts of the program are fully and seamlessly integrated to ensure the minimum of input is required by the user.

This program has been designed by someone who knows the industry and it's requirements. The future development of the program will be user driven, all comments and suggestions for improvement will be taken seriously.

Ridgewood Software supplies demo data files which should allow sufficient scope for the evaluation of the Wellsite Directional Controller. These files are available on the download page.
