... of such reservoirs. This paper focuses on a giant carbonate reservoir and discusses the application of highly inclined well to optimizing the deployment of well pattern. In this paper, first, based on the productivity formulae of slanted and horizontal wells proposed by Besson, the adaptability of highly inclined...

... was a concern when running wire line in horizontal wells. With an increase in Plug and Abandonment projects expected, especially in deep water environments, new challenges will arise when it comes to cutting and retrieving completions. The electro-mechanical cutters have proven in recent years...

... With the advent of rotary steerable systems, successful drilling of horizontal wells became a reality in the oilfield. Even though the costs are much higher than for a vertical well, the production factor can be enhanced multiple times, making it very attractive. However, the drilling...

... the commercial production of this accumulation, the development plan will require the drilling of several horizontal wells with high productivity index. This paper explains how careful planning along with well placement technologies were used to mitigate the geological uncertainties involved in drilling...

... reservoirs. The first vertical well test showed a high heterogeneous and natural fractured carbonate reservoir. Considering the reservoir characteristics, analytical and numerical modeling was performed to assess the productivity of horizontal wells compared to vertical wells. As part of the Operator...

A sideway horizontal well section was consequently drilled navigating through the intervals with best porosity/permeability properties and open fractures. To best benefit from real time data availability and to guarantee drilling efficiency, a full...
