Assessment of Radial Drilling Feasibility at the Fields of the Orenburg Region

Article Preview

Abstract:

The development and use of the radial drilling technology has been a controversial issue in the oil and gas industry for a long time. Nowadays, almost all big oil and gas producers deal with the question of its practical use at particular fields. The results of works carried out at carbonate reservoir units of the Orenburg Region were analyzed in the article. The ways to improve the existing technology of radial drilling were also offered. The research objective is to evaluate the technological efficiency of radial drilling application at the fields of the Volga-Ural oil and gas region with carbonate reservoir units. The results of radial drilling were characterized with the help of the detailed geological and field analysis and their quantitative evaluation was given.
