Horizontal wells are mainstay for shale gas development, with rigs playing a unique role.rock core drilling rig

 

  1. Identify horizontal section targets: Core from vertical wells pinpoints high-quality shale zones, guiding target selection.
  2. Guide horizontal trajectories: Use core data on shale trends and properties to optimize paths through prime reservoirs.
  3. Evaluate horizontal reservoirs: Get cores via logging-while-drilling, assess quality in real time, adjust plans promptly.
