Directional Drilling

💡 Operator Intent

To drill a multi-well pad with wells targeting the Bakken from a single surface location, including wells entering spacing units from off-lease.

The affidavit lists six wells (Granger Federal, Weasley, Dumbledore Federal) to be operated from the same pad, with some entering 'off-lease' units.

To utilize a 'wet shoe' liner completion design to enable a cheaper toe-initiation method for the first stage of hydraulic fracturing.

The document details a 'wet shoe' configuration involving an intentionally over-displaced cement job to create an uncemented annulus, allowing pump-down of first stage perforating guns on wireline.

🔧 Service Operator Relevance

Environmental & Location Construction

Mandatory closed mud system and impermeable liner requirement must be implemented before drilling commences. The approved permit date is 2026-10-05, and an anticipated start date of 2025-06-07 is listed, indicating planning is advanced.

Directional Drilling / Well Planning

The operator's anti-collision statement hinges on guidance from a named vendor (TAKTIKAL DIRECTIONAL). With six wells planned from the pad, detailed well path planning and real-time monitoring services are immediately relevant.

Cementing & Completions

The approved 'wet shoe' design dictates a specific cementing program for the production liner. Cementing contractors must execute the precise over-displacement plan to achieve the uncemented annulus for the toe initiation sleeve.

Drilling Waste Disposal

Operator has pre-selected a list of licensed disposal facilities for dry cuttings. Hauling and disposal services to the 'closest available facility' are required upon spud.
