... to develop a new oil field comprising multiple thin oil-bearing zones. It was decided to develop the field by upgrading an existing drilling rig on a platform rig 6 km away to drill extended reach horizontal wells. The objective was to place long lateral drains in a thin-pay reservoir. However, the foreseen...

... Abstract Several North Sea Operators are now using Snubbing Units to undertake operations previously regarded as only within the scope of a drilling rig (such as the running of 7" completions and the undertaking of gravel-packing operations). Snubbing Units are also increasingly being used...
