Geosteering Services for Horizontal Wells

 Integrated MWD, LWD and Real-time Geo-modelling for Successful Well   Placement Programs (Planning, Monitoring and Geosteering)

A 24/7 Service

Nature of Service
SMART4D’s process is an automated 3D geological model while drilling.  It is real-time tracking, updating and visualization of actual data that incorporates MWD and LWD information to optimize the drilling corridor of a horizontal well through a 3D geological target.  The process is vendor neutral (driller/surveyor/logger) through adherence to WITSML protocol delivered from Pason. 

Structure mapping accompanied by Gamma Ray and Resistivity modelling, analysis and feedback in minutes improves well placement while drilling (WD).  The system keeps up very well for heavy oil well drills with ROP’s of over 300 m/hr. 

Benefits
This accurate system is an excellent tool for communication with all stakeholders during drilling operations, staying within the sweet spot of the reservoir, avoiding collision, viewing the drilling corridor ahead of the bit and avoiding sidetracks.  The system can be used to remotely direct directional drilling.          

Applicable Resource types
All resource types including Heavy Oil, Tight Gas, CBM & Conventional Oil & Gas Reservoirs.

Mode of Service Delivery
Internet driven process with multiple page reports automatically generated every few minutes through a secured website.  Multiple projects with multiple rigs can be handled simultaneously. 
 

This service is ideal for Operations Geologists, Wellsite Geologists, Directional Drillers, Development Engineers and Partners requiring continuous reporting WD.
