Historically, the predominant sidetracking methodology for kick-off and subsequent curve building operation required setting a cement plug followed by using a directional BHA to drill deviated hole once the cement hardens. The success of the cement p

Abstract Many offshore oil fields throughout the world are reaching the end of their productive lives. Consequently, the operators are poised to plug and abandon a substantial number of wells in the next few years. This proliferation of current and f

The formation in Hemphill County, Texas and surrounding areas presents a number of challenges when drilling build section from a vertical pilot hole to form a horizontal lateral in the productive zone. The formation is hard and abrasive and it is dif

Conventional approach to deepwater reaming solutions generally consist of selecting appropriate size reaming tools, running hydraulic analysis for the interval and relying on the expertise of tool operator for the tool performance. This approach work

Openhole sidetracking is most commonly applied in three drilling scenarios: 1) to drill a horizontal lateral from the main wellbore in unconventional reservoir exploration 2) to drill lateral in a multilateral well 3) to detour around a stuck fish. I

Conventional wellbore departure and drilling systems generally require the operator to make multiple downhole trips to achieve a specific objective. For example, a window milling bottom hole assembly (BHA) is run in hole to create an exit path in the

Historically, in CT/TT application, sidetracking through the casing requires multiple trips to effectively produce a useable window for the next directional drilling assembly. The number of trips needed depends upon the performance of the window mill

The simple and most economical multilateral option in the production of heavy oil with optimum solids control is to employ either level 3 or level 4 junctions to access and drain oil bearing sand bodies. This paper presents an innovative junction des

Historically, the profile of the window milled with a conventional whipstock system resembles an inverted tear drop shape. The resulting full gage window opening is relatively cramped for subsequent drilling assemblies and liner completions. For exam
