INTEQ Extends Drilling Performance Envelope with AutoTrak® X-treme® Rotary Steerable Service

HOUSTON - April 27, 2006 - INTEQ has launched the AutoTrak® X-treme® Rotary Closed Loop Drilling System (RCLS), which delivers precise wellbore placement at high drilling efficiency.

INTEQ has integrated its third-generation AutoTrak rotary steerable system with its X-treme motor technology, which generates 50% to 100% more power than conventional motors. As a result, the new AutoTrak X-treme system offers pinpoint well placement and exceptional hole quality capabilities of the AutoTrak system with high penetration rates associated with the X-treme motor.

“The introduction of AutoTrak systems nearly ten years ago enabled complex 3-D wells to be drilled precisely through the reservoir for increased hydrocarbon recovery and lower cost,” explained Martin Craighead, INTEQ President. “We expect the advantages of the AutoTrak X-treme system to have a similar impact by further extending field development options and improving drilling efficiencies.”

Available to drill hole sizes from 5-7/8" to 18-1/4", the AutoTrak X-treme system has been field tested in rigorous drilling environments. In more than 100 demanding well sections, AutoTrak X-treme system has increased drilling efficiency, extended the reach of lower- capacity drilling rigs and reduced costs associated with casing or drillstring wear. The system has reduced risk in re-entry applications to allow operators to extend field life through economical access to stranded reserves.

In the North Sea, the AutoTrak X-treme system is being used routinely to extend the reach of horizontal production wells several thousand feet past prior limits for enhanced recovery. The AutoTrak X-treme system is also being applied extensively in Saudi Arabia to drill extended multilateral wells faster and more precisely to achieve reduced cost, early production and higher hydrocarbon recovery. In offshore India, the system has improved drilling performance and reach capabilities on a challenging multilateral project.

INTEQ, a division of Baker Hughes, is a provider of advanced While-Drilling technologies and services. Major capabilities include directional drilling, Measurement-While-Drilling (MWD), Logging-While-Drilling (LWD) and well-site information management services.

Baker Hughes is a leading provider of drilling, formation evaluation, completion and production products and services to the worldwide oil and gas industry.

AutoTrak X-treme services can be used to drill hole sizes from 5-7/8" to 18-1/4".

AutoTrak X-treme system’s added power (50% to 100%) is made possible by a proprietary X-treme stator design.

In offshore India, the AutoTrak X-treme system is being used to improve drilling efficiency and extend the reach of wells in a challenging limestone reservoir.

Baker Oil Tools' Newest Inflatable Service Packer Reduces Well Construction and Intervention Costs in Heavy-Duty Drilling Applications

HOUSTON (Feb. 14, 2003) – Baker Oil Tools’ new Blue Whale™ Inflatable Service Packer (ISP) is a high-expansion inflatable service tool designed for heavy-duty drilling applications. The Blue Whale ISP replaces a collection of tools with a single, simple tool that operates reliably in a range of environments to reduce total well construction and intervention costs.

Ability to seal a wide range of casing and open-hole sizes in critical applications fills ;important gap on deepwater rigs.

“Zone isolation in large-diameter casing and open holes offshore used to require a long list of packers, procedures, and secondary tools for each job. The Blue Whale has changed that,” said Baker Oil Tools Inflatables Product Line Manager Gordon Mackenzie. “The Blue Whale answers the need for a single tool that will seal a wide range of casing and openhole sizes in critical applications. On deepwater rigs -- where rig time, space, and transportation are expensive -- the Blue Whale can pay for itself quickly.”

The large contact area of the Blue Whale's inflatable sealing element allow it to anchor and seal reliably in wellbore
conditions such as soft formations, older and deteriorated casing, and fiberglass casing that pose problems for traditional mechanical service tools. The element inflates with most drilling fluids and pump pressure. Tubing weight is not required to set the tool.

Blue Whale ISP technology is based on the Baker Oil Tools Inflatable PIP (Production Injection Packer), the world's first
inflatable packer and the pioneer of all inflatable service tools. The Blue Whale can function as a permanent or retrievable bridge plug, a service packer, or a permanent cement retainer in cased or open hole. Its inflatable element allows for expansion ratios of greater than 200 percent after passing through wellbore restrictions. Additionally, a wide range of available accessory tools can be run with the Blue Whale ISP to perform many remedial operations in large-diameter hole.

Baker Oil Tools' proprietary INFLATEDESIGN™ software is a key component of the Blue Whale ISP system. INFLATEDESIGN eliminates guesswork by allowing precise definition of the Blue Whale’s performance envelope in a
given application. INFLATEDESIGN assists with information gathering, execution and post-job reporting, and can be used to consult with Baker Oil Tools inflatable systems experts onshore.

Baker Oil Tools is a world leader in total completion, workover, and fishing solutions that help exploration and
production companies optimize their hydrocarbon recovery investment. Baker Oil Tools solutions are based on advanced
downhole and surface technology, practically applied, to help operators produce at the highest levels and the lowest cost
throughout the life of the reservoir.
