D2 Oil Tools proudly announces a significant advancement in our international growth strategy with the official grant of our patent for The Floating Drift by the Republic of Singapore. This achievement marks a pivotal moment in our mission to eliminate dropped objects and enhance operational safety across global oil and gas operations.

Transforming Industry Standards Through Innovation

The Floating Drift represents a paradigm shift in tubular drifting technology, born from real-world challenges encountered on offshore rigs. Developed through the combined expertise of our founding team and colleague Danny Joe Richardson, this groundbreaking solution addresses the industry’s most persistent safety and efficiency concerns:

• Zero dropped objects on rig floors – eliminating a critical HSE risk
• Real-time tubular verification – detecting restrictions, over-torques, and debris at surface
• Significant reduction in non-productive time – streamlining operations and cutting costs
• Enhanced crew safety – removing personnel from high-risk derrick operations

Six Years of Dedicated Development

Our patent journey began in February 2019 with a vision to revolutionize how the industry approaches tubular integrity verification. Through extensive rig testing, continuous refinement, and unwavering commitment to safety, we’ve transformed an initial concept into a proven, industry-changing technology now officially recognized in March 2025.

This Singapore patent grant reinforces our position as innovators in oilfield safety solutions and strengthens our foundation for continued international expansion.

Driving the Future of Safer Operations

At D2 Oil Tools, we believe that exceptional safety and operational efficiency are not mutually exclusive. The Floating Drift exemplifies this philosophy, delivering measurable improvements in both areas while setting new benchmarks for the industry.

As we continue expanding our global footprint, this patent protection ensures that operators worldwide will have access to technology that makes their operations inherently safer and more cost-effective.

Innovation in our industry requires a collaborative ecosystem of support. We extend our deepest appreciation to the rig crews who provided invaluable field testing feedback, our industry partners who championed early adoption, and our families who supported us through years of development. This achievement belongs to everyone who believes that safer operations benefit the entire industry.
