Merlin

Merlin has an enviable track record of delivering value to clients through bringing additional reserves on stream without equipment upgrades with wells previously perceived as impossible. Merlin is a professional engineering consultancy and member of the UK Institute of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE). Our holistic approach to ERD combined with our proven techniques and an aviation approach to risk management reduces the risk, time and cost of these wells and increases the confidence in delivery. Merlin wells enjoy improved tool reliability, dependable hole cleaning performance and fewer wellbore instability problems. Inaccessible reserves can be exploited, problems can be eradicated and personnel capabilities greatly enhanced. We pride ourselves on clearly explaining what is required for an opportunity to be successful. We provide objective information to allow clients to assess whether the risk and cost profile is acceptable and worthy of investment. Recommendations are driven by what is required to deliver a successful project based on proven engineering concepts rather than conflict of interest such as tool rental revenue. The secret to our success is our people, who are amongst the most accomplished engineers and operations personnel in the industry. Merlin personnel have worked around the world for independent, major and national oil companies in their offices, at their rig sites and delivering training courses. The value they add comes from the knowledge they can share from having worked on the most challenging high angle drilling projects in the world. This knowledge combined with a rigorous approach to engineering fundamentals and operational best practices enables us to consistently deliver trouble free high angle wells.
