Multilateral and extended-reach wells create significant challenges for intervention. Operators must reliably access multiple laterals, confirm precise wellbore positioning, and perform effective stimulation in complex and often high-temperature environments. Conventional approaches can lack the precision and control required, leading to additional runs, increased operational time, and higher risk.
This animation highlights how the ExaCT access service, part of the ExaCT™ electrical downhole CT control system, enables efficient multilateral intervention. By combining electrical control, real-time telemetry, and integrated downhole technologies, the service helps operators enter, navigate, and stimulate multiple laterals in a single coiled tubing run.
Directional and inclination (D&I) module mapping provides real-time monitoring of the BHA location and identifies the direction of the lateral. Electrical multilateral module (eMLT) technology orients the tool toward the selected lateral and confirms entry using azimuth measurements. This reduces lateral entry confirmation time from hours to seconds.
The system also integrates controlled jetting to support accurate placement of stimulation treatments. Together, these technologies enable precise navigation and efficient stimulation in complex well architectures. With the ExaCT access service, operators can:
- Navigate multiple laterals with improved accuracy
- Confirm lateral entry in seconds
- Place stimulation treatments precisely
- Reduce operational time and intervention risk
- Improve efficiency in extended-reach and multilateral wells
