  2. Geosteering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geosteering

    Geosteering only practically became possible with the advent of deep reading 2 MHz resistivity LWD tools from the major LWD vendors (BakerHughes Reservoir Navigation Tool, SperrySun and Schlumberger) and other tools in the early 1990s, and the forward modeling software from a number of vendors capable of predicting resistivity tool responses for different relative angles and formation ...

  3. Measured depth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measured_depth

    In the oil industry measured depth (commonly referred to as MD, or just the depth) is the length of the drilled borehole. [1] In conventional vertical wells, this coincides with the true vertical depth , but in directional or horizontal wells, especially those using extended reach drilling , the two can deviate greatly.

  4. Measurement while drilling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurement_while_drilling

    A drilling rig is used to create a borehole or well (also called a wellbore) in the earth's sub-surface, for example in order to extract natural resources such as gas or oil. During such drilling, data is acquired from the drilling rig sensors for a range of purposes such as: decision-support to monitor and manage the smooth operation of ...

  5. Borehole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borehole

    A water resources borehole into the chalk aquifer under the North Downs, England at Albury. Engineers and environmental consultants use the term borehole to collectively describe all of the various types of holes drilled as part of a geotechnical investigation or environmental site assessment (a so-called Phase II ESA).

  7. Nested wells - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_wells

    Sand packs must be installed at the screen depths and seals in the borehole are constructed between the sand packs. Nested wells are different from well clusters in that the latter consists of a cluster of wells where tubes or pipes are constructed in separate, individual boreholes that are drilled and completed at different depths.

  9. Rock mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_mechanics

    Creating a borehole is a technique that consists of drilling through the ground in various areas at various depths, to get a better understanding of the sites geology. [5] Boreholes must be spaced properly from one another and drilled deep enough to provide accurate information for the geological model. [5]
