The IADC Drilling Engineers Committee hosted its third-quarter technology forum on the afternoon of Wednesday, 2 September, at Eureka Heights Brew Co. in Houston, Texas. Attendees from across the drilling sector came together for an informal session of networking and technical conversation, with drinks and light bites provided courtesy of Weatherford and Stasis Drilling.
The event offered a relaxed setting for engineers and industry professionals to catch up on recent developments, share field experiences, and discuss emerging trends shaping the next few quarters. With the brewery's laid-back atmosphere, the forum encouraged open dialogue outside the usual conference room format, which many participants noted as a welcome change of pace.
