...) the horizontal ERW; 4) two ERWs with identical measured depth (MD). These analyses can be used to explain why the world drilling limit envelope shows an irregular triangle. The research shows that drilling limits are restricted by borehole space, well deviation, bearing capacity of drilled formation, mechanical...
