Directional Drilling

Directional Drilling is the process of drilling a deviated well to reach the Bottom Hole Location (BHL) that is different from the Surface location. Directional drilling is carried out for several reasons. It could be either for accessing specific BHL where the surface location is obstructed or inaccessible or for reaching several BHLs from one surface location or for enhancing reservoir production from a well. Directional Drilling is a specialized service. It needs many special tools and skills for designing & achieving the intended direction of a well.
