🔶Warning Signs of Kicks | Drilling & Well Control
Early detection of a kick is essential for maintaining well control. Key indicators include increased flow rate, pit gain, flow with pumps off, and incorrect hole fill while tripping.
These signs are not always proof of an influx, so always perform a flow check and follow the approved well-control procedure.
Detect early. Act quickly. Maintain control.
