Difference between horizontal & directional drilling
● There are different types of drilling process.
● Every process has its own advantage and applications
which are used in different conditions and situation.
● We will compare the directional and the horizontal drilling to
see which one can be better.
Introduction
● Directional Drilling is the process of drilling which controls
the direction and deviation of the boring programmed to the
targeted location.
What is Directional Drilling?
● Through Directional Drilling, we can create multiple wells
and drilling locations from any entrance.
● Through the directional drilling, we can also get drilling
access to the places, which we can’t reach through the
normal drilling or trenching process.
● The directional drilling also helps in making the multiple
target zones.
Applications of Directional Drilling
● We can also avoid the fault drilling through the directional
drilling. In many situations there is the risk of slippage or
movement along the fault.
● There can be many problems involved with the drilling
beneath the salt domes especially in vertical drilling. In this
situation, directional drilling is very useful.
● This technique is also used for placing the pipes or drilling
projects under the rivers.
Applications of Directional Drilling
● Horizontal Drilling is the process of drilling where the
direction of the well is horizontal. It is normally used to
extract energy from the source which is in horizontal
position.
What is Horizontal Drilling?
● It reduces the rate of sand production.
● It reduces the pressure around the well bore.
● It has lower fluid velocities.
● It can increase the production.
● It passes through lateral heterogeneity. Through this we can
also find more information about the internal reservoirs.
● Horizontal drilling also helps in obtaining the oil from the
flooded areas.
● It reduces the water and gas coning.
● It has the effective drainage pattern that results in the high
rate of recovering the reserves.
Applications of Horizontal Drilling
● We-Bore-It has been providing directional boring and
trenching services to the Cable, Telecommunications and
Wireless industry since 1990.
● The company was founded with the idea of uniting multiple
contracting companies under one umbrella company.
● Our goal is to offer our residential and commercial
customers a service that focuses on all their underground
construction needs.
