One of the responsibilities of a directional driller is to correctly grade a bit after it has been used in a drilling operation. Grading bit by IADC classification a used bit is important because it determines whether or not the bit can be re-run or a back up is picked up for the 2nd run. […]

Objectives of Directional Drilling Directional drilling is employed for several reasons, including: Reaching inaccessible reservoirs – Allows drilling under obstacles like cities, lakes, or environmentally sensitive areas. Increasing reservoir contact – Horizontal and multilateral wells maximize exposure to hydrocarbon-bearing formations. Enhancing production efficiency – Enables better drainage of reservoirs and improves recovery factors. Reducing costs […]
