Congratulations to Shell Canada Limited and their Operations, Engineering and DART team together with the rig and crew of Precision Drilling 574 on this impressive achievement.
Pacesetter’s combined technologies drilled 4,076m in 52 hours of operation and completed the build and lateral section in a single successful run to TD of 7,180m MD
This is Pacesetter’s Orbit RSS longest run to date.
OPERATOR Shell Canada Limited
HOLE SIZE 171 mm
RUN DETAILS 3104m MD TO 7180m MD
BACKGROUND
The 171 mm build and lateral section of the well was drilled using Pacesetter’s Orbit RSS with dual telemetry XEM EM MWD and Redline Pulse MWD. The Acoustic Near Bit Inclination Sub enhanced the RSS trajectory control by transmitting inclination measurements closer to the bit. XEM EM MWD system maintained strong signal and good decode to TD making it Pacesetter’s longest well drilled with EM.
TECHNOLOGIES
Pacesetter’s modified Orbit RSS breaks records in the Pembina field Using Pacesetter’s combined technologies of XPACE EM MWD and our modified PowerDrive Orbit RSS, one Operator drilled 3 record wells in the Pembina field. The vertical and build sections on the final 2 wells were drilled while continuing on into the lateral reaching TD in […]
