... losses have been experienced frequently during drilling, with many wells being sidetracked three or four times before reaching the target. To understand the failure mechanism and optimize the drilling design to mitigate the drilling risk has become crucial for the field development. As the basis...

... challenges during drilling due to unanticipated formation collapse, leading to multiple sidetracks. The reservoir contains dry gas with >30% CO 2 inside naturally fractured basement rock. Wells in this area are usually drilled with total losses throughout the reservoir section and completed by running...

... and development wells drilled in the field did not experience any wellbore stability issues. During drilling of the X-8, wellbore stability and collapse caused significant problems and resulted in the sidetracking of the well three times. Prior to the drilling, it was recognized that depleted reservoir conditions...

...) sidetracks combining either shallow or deep targets were passed on to the reservoir engineering team for optimisation from simulation models and first-pass estimation of oil incremental reserves. Reservoir simulation focuses on optimising target intervals as determined through G&G work and drilling...

... In the past, conventional sidetracks and multiple delineation wells were required to determine the presence of an oil band and its updip and downdip limits. At Gobe 4X, a non-conventional sidetrack drilled downdip along reservoir bedding determined both the gas-oil and oil-water contacts. Thus...
