Directional drilling has been an integral part of the oil and gas industry since the 1920s. While the technology has improved over the years, the concept of directional drilling remains the same: drilling wells at multiple angles, not just vertically, to better reach and produce oil and gas reserves. Additionally, directional drilling allows for multiple wells from the same vertical well bore, minimizing the wells’ environmental impact.
Directional drilling is defined as the practice of controlling the direction and deviation of a wellbore to a predetermined underground target or location. Directional drilling is the real-time integration of downhole motor practice, Logging While Drilling (LWD) and measuring while drilling (MWD) data with geo-steering and the earth model. A summary of applications is:
- Multiple well from single location
- Multiple target zone
- Side track
- Inaccessible surface location
- Relief-well drilling
We specialize in wellbore placement solutions and are a leading provider of directional drilling, LWD and MWD services. Our tools and equipment are sourced from the best manufacture in this field.
