Abstract:

The compound directional drilling process, including slip and rotation, is the key to realizing long-hole drilling in coal mines. First, a compound directional drilling process control scheme is proposed to realize intelligent control of the directional drilling process. An intelligent drilling process optimization method was designed to improve drilling efficiency. A robust controller for the drilling rate based on gain scheduling was designed to achieve stable control of the drilling rate during sliding deflection drilling. A robust controller based on hybrid sensitivity was designed to achieve stable control of the drilling rate during rotary inclined stabilization drilling. The results of this study can provide a theoretical basis for realizing the intelligent optimization and control of compound directional drilling in coal mines.

Abstract:

Sampling using horizontal directional drilling allows the collection of soil samples from suspected zones located beneath structures and other surface-subsurface obstacles. However, current horizontal sampling techniques are time consuming and thus expensive. This paper describes the design and testing of a new multiple-port sampler for collection of soil samples from directionally drilled boreholes. The device uses a new methodology for horizontal sampling to improve cost-effectiveness and sample quality.Key words: horizontal directional drilling, horizontal wells, design, remediation, site characterization, sampling.

Abstract:

Well X is a development well which is directionally drilled. Directional drilling is choosen because the coordinate target of Well X is above the buffer zone. The directional track plan needs accurate survey calculation in order to make the righ track for directional drilling. There are many survey calculation in directional drilling such as tangential, underbalance, average angle, radius of curvature, and mercury method. Minimum curvature method is used in this directional track plan calculation. This method is used because it gives less error than other method. Kick-Off Point (KOP) and End of Buildup (EOB) analysis is done at 200 ft, 400 ft, and 600 ft depth to determine the trajectory design and optimal inclination. The hole problem is also determined in this trajectory track design. Optimal trajectory design determined at 200 ft depth because the inclination below 35º and also already reach the target quite well at 1632.28 ft TVD and 408.16 AHD. The optimal inclination at 200 ft KOP depth because the maximum inclination is 18.87º which is below 35º. Hole problem will occur if the trajectory designed at 600 ft. The problems are stuck pipe and the casing or tubing will not able to bend.

Abstract:

The article focuses on the experience of drilling directional wells and cluster drilling in the oil and gas fields of Western Turkmenistan. The paper defines the direction of development of technology for drilling directional wells, taking into account the development of technology at the present time. Proposals are given and equipment, as well as materials possible for cluster drilling of directional wells in the Southwestern part of Turkmenistan are identified. Applied technical and technological innovations that meet international standards have ensured the successful completion of cluster drilling of a number of directional wells in the fields of Southwestern Turkmenistan. This work will mark the beginning of the development of cluster drilling of deep directional wells with abnormally high reservoir pressures and will create an impetus for technical re-equipment, as well as organizational restructuring of cluster drilling on a scientific basis. Keywords: horizontal termination; boreholes; landscape; casing; cement; formation; mining; сluster drilling; trajectory; curvature mechanism.

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to combine the basic concepts of mechanics on drill string which are related to directional drilling, thus finding a less complicated and more economical way for drilling directional wells. Slick BHA, which has no stabilizers attached and single stabilizer BHA are analyzed through previously derived formulas gathered from the literature that are rearranged for this study. An actual directional well is redrilled theoretically with a slick BHA and a computer program is assembled for calculating the side force and direction of the well for single stabilizer BHA. Influence of controllable variables on drilling tendency is investigated and reported. The study will be useful for well trajectory and drill string design in accordance with the drilling phase. Also, by using available data from offset wells, drilling engineer can back-calculate the formation anisotropy index (FAI) that is often used for optimizing well trajectories and predicting drilling tendency on new wells in similar drilling conditions. After analysing the directional well data used in this study, it has been concluded that the well could be drilled without a steerable tool if the kick of point (KOP) is not a shallower depth. If the KOP is kept similar, the same curvature could not be achieved without a steerable tool.

Full text

Abstract:

Drilling fluid plays a key role in the installation of a pipeline by horizontal directional drilling (HDD) and accounts for the majority of the associated environmental impact. An improper drilling fluid program can result in stuck pipe. Uncontrolled discharge of drilling fluid downhole can damage or undermine adjacent structures.The cost of drilling fluid involved with pipeline installation, particularly when disposal costs are considered, can be substantial. This manual is the principal product of PRC project PR-227-9321. Its purpose is to increase the level of technical sophistication relative to drilling fluids used in the installation of pipelines by Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD). It is anticipated that this increase will benefit the natural gas industry through reductions in HDD installation costs and environmental impact. The manual contains six sections which address the following general topics: 1 . The HDD installation process, the specific functions of drilling fluids in pipeline installation by HDD, and the composition of drilling fluids; 2. Characteristics of drilling fluid flow, pertinent properties of drilling fluids, and calculation methods relative to drilling fluid flow circuits; 3. Standard classification of soil and rock structures and soil and rock properties relative to drilling fluid flow; 4. The behavior of soil and rock structures relative to drilling fluid flow, general drilling fluid criteria, and general solutions to drilling problems; 5. Methods for estimating drilling fluid quantities, methods for disposing of excess drilling fluids, the environmental impact of drilling fluids used in HDD, and construction specifications relative to drilling fluids; and 6. Materials used drilling fluids.

Full text

Abstract:

The horizontal directional drilling (HDD) technique is specially suited for pipeline crossings of waterways, beaches, roads, vulnerable natural regions, railroads and airports. The HDD method is a two-stage process consisting of navigating a drill stem underground along a predetermined design route and the pulling back of the product pipe through the prepared hole. One of the major problems faced in HDD projects is subsurface exploration and locating of existing underground obstacles. HDD equipment must avoid these obstacles if at all possible. This study was conducted to: 1. Determine the state-of-the-art for obstacle detection in horizontal directional drilling technology. 2. Examine all possible techniques for obstacle detection. 3. Evaluate the most promising and suitable techniques for further development. 4. Determine further work necessary to reach a 100-foot (30 m) target. 5. Make recommendations for HDD contractors.

Abstract:

The PRCI Technical Committees have carried many research projects related to the subject of horizontal directional drilling (HDD). This report; therefore, presents a summary of past PRCI-funded studies in the area of HDD. Since studies sponsored by other industry groups (e.g., INGAA, EPRG, APIA, CEPA, etc.) or by individual pipeline companies are not included, this report does not represent a review of the topic in the broader industry-wide sense. Instead, it is designed to provide a guide to past work so that current TC members can identify and locate project reports that might be of use in addressing their current day-to-day HDD issues.

Abstract:

Directional drilling technology as related to the installation of small and large diameter pipelines at water crossings is continually improving. The current technology provides pipeline owner/operators with a valid installation option for both environmentally and geotechnically (i.e. unstable slopes) sensitive crossings. Route selection and design teams need some general information to assess whether directional drilling is feasible at a particular crossing. To aid this assessment, a study was commissioned by NOVA on the general aspects of directional drilling such as profiles, work area size, and current technology limits. Highlights of the study are presented. In addition, six case histories where directional drilling at water crossings was either considered or used are discussed. Finally, the authors' views of the future of this technology within Alberta are offered.

Abstract:

While the fundamentals of horizontal directional drilling (HDD) technology are well known, the implementation of HDD involves utilizing a vast range of equipment and installation procedures. This project developed HDD guidance documents to provide the Illinois Department of Transportation with metrics to evaluate a proposed HDD installation. This report compiled information collected during this project, including a literature review, HDD case histories observation, and an industry survey. Four main guidance documents, including the proposed HDD Guidelines, HDD Guidance Specifications, Permit Submittal Checklist, and Inspector Checklist, are the main products developed from the project.
