Challenge: Exploit attic oil reserves in
carbonate field, drilling through target reservoir known to contain a complex
fracture network and several faults
Solution: Use MicroScope HD high-definition
imaging-while-drilling service and PeriScope bed boundary mapping service to
geosteer a drain hole along the top of the target reservoir
Results: Acquired high-resolution LWD images
that characterized fracture networks to enhance geosteering as well as postjob
analysis for completion design and structural interpretation
