Abstract
Abstract: Geosteering
By
Union Pacific Resources, Fort Worth
Horizontal
well
technology has evolved rapidly. Our most difficult
concerns have changed from borehole stability and
drilling
techniques to completion, stimulation, and formation evaluation.
Tomorrow's challenge lies in precisely steering the
well
path
using formation geological and geophysical information. This
technique is called "geosteering" and is credited with major
improvements in
drilling
results. This presentation will review
the state-of-the-art in geosteering and includes field examples.
