Real Real-time Geosteering

Proceedings of SPE European Petroleum Conference, 2000
AbstractThis paper is one of a series published during 2000 to coincide with the launch of an advanced drilling system known as "Anaconda". This drilling system utilises a manufactured carbon fibre composite tube in place of conventional steel drill pipe or coiled tubing.

Survey Management During Geosteering

SPE Russian Petroleum Technology Conference, 2021
Abstract Geosteering is usually responsible for addressing geological uncertainties, such as the uncertainty in the position of the horizon structure or the structural dip angle. During drilling, the directional survey measurements are taken as true, whilst the uncertainties related to the instruments are not considered.

The Principles and Procedures of Geosteering

IADC/SPE Drilling Conference, 1996
Abstract The management of directionally drilled wells has recently progressed to the stage where targets have been reduced in size to a point in the earth with no tolerances. These targets can and are changed during the drilling process.

Transition Zone Geosteering

Proceedings, 2010
With many major oilfields moving into decline, the importance of placing wells correctly relative to fluid contacts is becoming increasingly important. This paper discusses some aspects and highlights specific challenges of geosteering horizontal wells within or close to the oil-water transition zone using deep-reading resistivity measurements while ...

Automatic Geosteering of Wells

SPE Russian Petroleum Technology Conference, 2018
Summary The issue of automatic transfer of well data was successfully resolved long time ago by means of WITS\WITSML protocols, and now automatic processing of the received data is on the agenda. The article describes the basics of automatic well geosteering, cross-check of the results of automatic geosteering performed by specialists ...

Horizontal Well Geosteering: Planning, Monitoring And Geosteering

Journal of Canadian Petroleum Technology, 2008
Abstract The geosteering process should not be seen as a process solely designated for the most expensive or highest profile horizontal wells. It can be regarded as another tool for improving the odds of success by remaining in the productive zone for longer periods of drilling.

Geosteering

2009
Geosteering includes trajectory changes in directional and horizontal drilling where decisions are made in real-time related to data acquired by logging while drilling measurements. Steering is possible by placing resistivity, gamma-ray, density and porosity sensors above the motor or integrating sensors in rotary steerable system.

Geosteering in a Complex Dolomitic Reservoir

SPE/IADC Middle East Drilling Technology Conference, 2001
Abstract This paper presents the key of success for the development of a complex prospect, the Sarr dolomitic reservoir in the Kharir field, located onshore Yemen. The drilling of horizontal wells was considered to limit the early water encroachment observed on vertical producers and to improve both the oil production and the final ...

Collaboration and Decision Support in Geosteering

Proceedings of SPE Intelligent Energy Conference and Exhibition, 2010
Abstract CODIO is an advanced decision support system for the drilling process with focus on geosteering. The CODIO system tackles both coordination and decision complexity of the drilling process. Coordination complexity is due to interactions between geographically and organizationally distributed experts in a real-time information ...
