Drilling horizontally under the ground veers away from the traditional cut and cover installation. Installing pipes and utilities this way, on a predetermined path, is considered to be more beneficial ...

Directional drilling in complex formations delivers higher reservoir contact, safer access around hazards, reduced surface footprint, and better wellbore stability—ultimately improving production, ...

Data from Permian basin drilling show the benefits of automation advances. Next-level drilling automation executes steering decisions from the bit guidance system automatically. Slide sequences are ...

Directional drilling enables precise wellbore placement to navigate faults, thin/interbedded strata, pressure contrasts, and surface-access constraints. In complex geology, it consistently delivers ...
