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.
