Directional Drilling

A Step in the Right Direction

Directional Wells
Horizontal
Short Radius
Medium Radius
Long Radius

Slant
Straight, but at a predetermined angle

Deviated
S Curve

Single Wells-Multilateral Wells

Slim Hole Mud Motor with Bent Sub

Monel Drill Collars

MWD Tools

Self-contained Wire Line Unit

MWD-Measurement While Drilling

Real time directional surveys

Rotational speed of the drillstring
Mud flow volume
Downhole temperature
Torque and Weight on Bit

LWD-Logging While Drilling

Measures
Formation density
Porosity
Resisitivity
Inclination at the Drill Bit
Magnetic Resonance
Formation Pressure

Monel Collars

Directional Drillers Control Room

MWD Toolbox

Satellite Uplink

Horizontal Wellbore

Advantages
Multiple wellheads on single pad
Less surface and environmental
disturbance
Less roads and ROWs to maintain
Drilling and production waste centralized
to one site
Centralization of facilities
Lower operating costs

ee wells-All directional to the same formation
