How about Directional Drilling to Reach Reservoirs?

Practical reach is just a few kilometers

Heres a question:
Is it more expensive to install a pipeline by?:

a.
b.

Drill a pipeline
Lay a pipeline

Which can be longer?

Subsea Capability for Offset

Subsea Benefits:
Better water depth capacity, technology, and history
Far superior offset from well to production facility
Flexibility in field designs
Leads to a Pipeline Hub transportation infrastructure strategy

Challenges in Deepwater Subsea Developments

Water depths drive challenges:

- Depth qualification
- Offsets from production facilities
Communication and Control
- Economic considerations
Changes in Reservoir
Flow Assurance and Control
Intervention
Maintenance
- Reservoir pressure and temperature
HPHT
Production Facilities
Drilling Equipment

K5F Commissioning

Offshore commissioning went well,
second well commissioned in less then
24Hrs

Minor issues not related to the electric
system, but similar to standard systems
(integration)

Due to improved condition monitoring,
better evaluation of problems. Easier and
quicker trouble-shooting.
