Geosteering - A training course by PetroSkillsThis course can be conducted on site at your location exclusively for your staff. After providing an introduction to horizontal drilling, the fundamentals of correlation, an overview of LWD tool development and technology, the course will concentrate on the process of geosteering and all the necessary constraints and requirements associated with the technology. Relying heavily on geology in order to understand variations in the subsurface, the course will guide the participant through geosteering the curve, landing and then drilling the lateral. Employing specialized software techniques, this process will be repeated many times through different facies common to horizontal drilling today. Encountering a wide variety of geologic variations, the participant will be presented with techniques to both identify these changes and resolve their affect on the wellbore in order to ensure proper well placement within the target zone..Find out more
