2. Cardium Formation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardium_Formation

   The Cardium Formation is a stratigraphic unit of Late Cretaceous age in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin. It takes the name from the fossilized heart-shaped cockle shells in the family Cardiidae (from Greek καρδίᾱ kardiā, "heart") present. It was first described along the Bow River banks by James Hector in 1895. [2]

4. Well drilling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_drilling

   Well drilling is the process of drilling a hole in the ground for the extraction of a natural resource such as ground water, brine, natural gas, or petroleum, for the injection of a fluid from surface to a subsurface reservoir or for subsurface formations evaluation or monitoring.

6. Directional drilling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directional_drilling

   Directional drilling (or slant drilling) is the practice of drilling non-vertical bores. It can be broken down into four main groups: oilfield directional drilling, utility installation directional drilling, directional boring (horizontal directional drilling - HDD), and surface in seam (SIS), which horizontally intersects a vertical bore ...

7. Completion (oil and gas wells) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completion_(oil_and_gas_wells)

   Well completion is the process of making a well ready for production (or injection) after drilling operations. This principally involves preparing the bottom of the hole to the required specifications, running in the production tubing and its associated down hole tools as well as perforating and stimulating as required.

8. Drill bit (well) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit_(well)

   Regardless of type, drill bits must satisfy two primary design goals: maximize the rate of penetration (ROP) of the formation and provide a long service life. The reason for this is a direct consequence of the rotary drilling method. Modern oilfield drilling operations require substantial capital and operating expense.
