Dual Gradient Drilling

Dual Gradient Drilling is a managed pressure drilling technique that distinguishes itself by maintaining two distinct hydrostatic pressure gradients in the wellbore, typically through the use of surface or seafloor fluid return systems, to enable safer and more efficient deepwater drilling operations.
