X Drilling Tools

Overview

Servicing the global oil and gas industries, X Drilling Tools (XDT) was established with the clear intention of quickly becoming the preferred choice for performance-enhancing down-hole drilling products.

XDT is the recently-launched Downhole Drilling Tools & Services division of Reservoir Group, which is taking forward the development of RG’s downhole drilling tools & services, using as a platform the existing product portfolio of RG’s drilling tools business, Extreme Machining Australia. The division will utilise the existing successful product line and structure, of Extreme, but will also focus on the globalisation of a larger range of downhole roller-reamers and ancillary tools, as well as bringing new innovative products to market.

Concentrating on a design philosophy of building robust tools for the most extreme drilling conditions, XDT continues to research and develop new technology to solve today's drilling problems. To do so, XDT utilises the most modern design software and manufacturing techniques in line with the world's best practice to deliver cutting-edge technology in bottom-hole assembly.

All manufacturing is carried out in-house at two manufacturing facilities in Australia and Vietnam.
