Directional drilling is used to precisely place wellbores within the most productive parts of the reservoir and to increase reservoir contact, thereby boosting inflow capacity and ultimate recovery ...
In today’s high-demand energy sector, utilities and infrastructure developers face increasing pressure to deliver projects more quickly while minimizing disruption to the environment and surrounding ...
Efficient drilling in shale reservoirs requires detailed 3-dimensional (3D) horizontal well trajectories. An orthogonal-arc trajectory (OAT) method assumes a single constant curvature in the curved ...
