DirecHonal Drilling
Direc=onal
Drilling
Controlled
direc=onal
drilling
is
the
science
of
devia=ng
a
wellbore
along
a
planned
course
to
a
subterranean
target
located
a
given
distance
horizontally
from
a
point
directly
under
the
center
of
the
rotary
table
of
a
drilling
rig.
With
the
advances
in
new
steerable
mud
motors,
measurement
while
drilling
(MWD
and,
logging
while
drilling
(LWD)
tools,
direc=onal
drilling
became
more
and
more
popular
during
the
last
20
years.
It
is
now
possible
to
drill
economically
extended
reach
wells
or
mul=-horizontal
(lateral)
wells,
even
under
dicult
condi=ons.
Old
direc=onal-drilling
prac=ces
such
as
whipstocks,
jeNng
or
mud
motors
with
bent
subs
are
s=ll
in
use.
Direc=onal
drilling
requires
the
measurement
of
both
ver=cal
devia=on
and
horizontal
direc=on.
This
is
done
by
direc=onal
survey
instruments
which
are
the
eyes
through
which
the
direc=onal
drilling
engineer
can
see
where
the
hole
is
going.

Why
Surveying?
To
determine
the
boTomhole
loca=on
rela=ve
to
the
surface
loca=on
or
another
reference
system.
To
locate
excessive
doglegs
or
hole
curvature.
To
monitor
inclina=on
and
azimuth
during
drilling.
To
orient
(deec=on)
tools.
Principle
Informa=on
Regardless
of
the
type
of
survey
instrument
(single-shot,
mul=-shot,
steering
tool,
SRO
Gyro,
MWD,
EM-MWD)
three
pieces
of
informa=on
are
known.
Survey
Measured
Depth.
Inclina=on.
Azimuth
(corrected
for
true
north).
Wellbore
azimuth
(direc=on)
measured
in
the
horizontal
plane
and
expressed
in
degrees
from
the
true
(geographic)
north
direc=on
star=ng
at
0
and
con=nuing
clockwise
to
360.
