Locates wells with accuracy and precision
Talk to an expertOperators producing heavy crude oil and bitumen require in-situ thermal recovery techniques such as steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) development to recover hydrocarbons. The RangeStar™ Parallel Well Alignment Service is designed for SAGD applications where parallel stacked horizontal wells require to be drilled into the reservoir just a few meters apart with a high degree of accuracy. The service uses surface excitation to determine a ranging distance and direction relative to the drilling wellbore.
The RangeStar™ Parallel Well Alignment Service helps operators overcome challenges, including high infrastructure and operational costs, large pad design and wide slot spacing, uncertain well placement, conveyance challenges and removal of wireline conveyed tools that have temperature limitations.
An industry first, the RangeStar™ Parallel Well Alignment Service connects to the target wellbore via the wellhead. The surface access allows operators to eliminate the need for wireline ranging conveyance. Streamlining the ranging process helps reduce rig time, operation costs, and health, safety, and environmental (HSE) risks.
