| Title: |
Use single platform or drilling pad to drill multiple extended-reach wells |
| Text: |
Directional Drilling: Extended Reach Drilling: "In some situations, it is impractical or too expensive to drill wells from locations directly above the target formations. ... Another option involves using a single platform or drilling pad to drill multiple extended-reach wells in different directions or to different depths, thereby minimizing the number of surface well-pad facilities. |
