What is TDH?

  • TDH is a fully-featured torque, drag, and hydraulics modelling package for drilling engineers working in oil, gas, geothermal, and carbon capture environments.
  • TDH is a ground-up redesign of Merlin’s own in-house software, used daily on the world’s most complex wells.
  • TDH allows engineers in the office or in the field to build a model quickly, analyse and interpret results, reducing risk in planning and improving performance during execution.
  • TDH avoids the need for a local computer installation, improving usability and flexibility.
  • TDH is customizable, code-light and ready for easy modification.

Built by Engineers for Engineers

  • As drilling engineers ourselves, we want speed and simplicity from our tools. Time spent building models rather than analysing results is time wasted.
  • If you are an intermittent T,D, and H model user, the last thing you need is to relearn the software from scratch every time. TDH improves on the original version in terms of simplicity and ease of use.
  • TDH incorporates advanced elements of functionality such as scenario comparison tools, advanced rheology correction based on heat flow, casing wear, casing design*, cementing and multifluid analysis* and real-time data streaming*.
  • Model friction reduction tools, floated casing strings and assess tortuosity effects with simple, built-in functionality – no need for complex workarounds.
