Applications

Coiled Tubing Drilling offers the most cost effective solution in many types of applications including both re-entry and grass roots drilling (in particular multi-well opportunities, such as those required in unconventional resources). These techniques are suitable for a number of types of operations but some of the main ones include:​

DEPLETED WELLS

CTD provides the ability to re-enter the casing of an existing well and drill branches (multilaterals) that are created off the main horizontal section to help drain the reservoir and increase the well potential.​

Drill multiple bore-holes quickly and efficiently to maximize the reservoir contact and production.​

UNCONVENTIONAL GAS SHALES

Quick, efficient and controlled horizontal and directional drilling in the formation.​

COAL BED METHANE

Controlled directional drilling along the bottom of the formation to link the injection well to the production well.​

UNDERGROUND COAL GASIFICATION
