  3. Extended reach drilling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Reach_Drilling

    Extended Reach Drilling (ERD) is directional drilling of very long non-vertical wells. The aims of ERD are: a) to reach a larger area from one surface drilling location, and b) to keep a well in a reservoir for a longer distance in order to maximize its productivity and drainage capability.

    A horizontal directional drill in operation A structure map generated by contour map software for an 8,500-foot-deep (2,600 m) gas and oil reservoir in the Erath field, Vermilion Parish, Erath, Louisiana. The left-to-right gap, near the top of the contour map indicates a fault line. This fault line is between the blue/green contour lines and ...

    Sea Robin Pipeline is a submarine natural gas pipeline system which brings natural gas from the offshore oil wells in the Ship Shoal area of the central Gulf of Mexico onto the central Louisiana coast.

  6. Reservoir engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservoir_engineering

    Reservoir engineers could use the map as a part of their well drill planning. Reservoir engineering is a branch of petroleum engineering that applies scientific principles to the fluid flow through a porous medium during the development and production of oil and gas reservoirs so as to obtain a high economic recovery.

  7. Hole opener - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hole_opener

    Heavy-duty roller cones hole opener used for offshore drilling. A hole opener is a device used to enlarge the borehole during a well drilling operation. It can be positioned either above the drill bit or above a pilot run inside the existing borehole. Usages range from hydrocarbon drilling operations to water drilling or horizontal drilling.

  8. Density logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_logging

    Density logging is a well logging tool that can provide a continuous record of a formation's bulk density along the length of a borehole.In geology, bulk density is a function of the density of the minerals forming a rock (i.e. matrix) and the fluid enclosed in the pore spaces.

  9. Drill cuttings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_cuttings

    Drill cuttings can be separated from liquid drilling fluid by shale shakers, by centrifuges, or by cyclone separators, the latter also being effective for air drilling. In cable-tool drilling, the drill cuttings are periodically bailed out of the bottom of the hole. In auger drilling, cuttings are carried to the surface on the auger flights.
