Introduction

Welcome, this blog will contain posts about new technologies being used or introduced in the drilling aspect of the petroleum industry.  This includes advances in drill bits, drilling rigs, downhole tools, and others.  I am currently a senior at the Colorado School of Mines and looking forward to graduating this May of 2011 with a Bachelors in Petroleum Engineering and minor in Economics.  Throughout the semester, I will update my blog with posts about the drilling advancements being developed and used today to better econmically reach tough to produce reservoirs such as unconventional ones.  I hope you learn some intersting facts about drilling as I expand my knowledge of the petroleum industry as well.
