Directional Drilling. Analysis of Inventions
Hydrocarbons in low-permeable shale rocks, unlike oil and gas-rich natural reservoirs, are located on a much larger area and, lacking mobility, are clogged in relatively small cavities. To ensure the extraction of hydrocarbons from such rocks, at least two additional measures are required: to increase the contact area of the well with the gas-containing formation and to increase the permeability of the rock. Since the thickness of...
