Weatherford shared that an operator needed to reach total depth despite equivalent circulating density limitations and make sure surface equipment could withstand excessive pressures if a higher mud weight was used.
The company said using conventional technology would have led the operator to come up 4,000 feet short of total depth. Details are available through a provided link.
WFRD is trading at $95.89, sitting above the MA-20 ($91.84) and MA-200 ($73.29), but nearly even with the MA-50 ($95.39). This setup indicates a strong multi-timeframe bullish structure, with near-term momentum slowing but longer-term support intact. The Ichimoku Kijun on D1 is at $97.05, just above the current price, acting as immediate resistance. Near-term support stands at the MA-50 ($95.39) and MA-20 ($91.84), while key support is found at the MA-100 ($86.61). Immediate resistance comes from the Ichimoku Kijun ($97.05), with the next key resistance at the MA-5 ($94.73) recently surpassed, and all higher resistance now near $97.05.
On momentum, MACD on D1 signals strong selling pressure, while ADX remains neutral and below the key trending threshold. RSI on D1 is at 55.13, leaning bullish but not overbought, whereas Stoch RSI and BBP both flag extreme overbought conditions, pointing to buyer overheating and a potential near-term pause. CCI is positive, supporting mild bullish divergence, but the Awesome Oscillator is neutral, highlighting unclear conviction. WFRD is trading at $95.89, up from $86.14 a week ago, reflecting an 11.32% gain. The price is clustered at the very top of this week’s range (near resistance), with weekly volatility standing at 13.21%. The tone has been a sustained climb into weekly highs without clear short-term exhaustion, although oscillators are now flashing caution.
For the coming week, an adjusted forecast range is $91.00 to $99.50, reflecting the current price’s proximity to recent highs and containing volatility within typical bounds. Given all four W1 signals (RSI, ADX, MACD, and MA-50) are bullish, there is a very high probability (more than 80%) of further gains, while the chance of a reversal is relatively low. Baseline scenario: price consolidates between $91.00 and $99.50. Bullish scenario: a break above $97.05 resistance could see retests of the $100 area. Bearish scenario: a pullback below $95.39 may quickly attract buyers near $92.00–$91.00. This forecast is anchored well above the 52-week low ($36.74) and within sight of the year’s high ($110.57), underscoring WFRD’s strong uptrend on the longer horizon.
