Language: Inglés Publication details: Mayo 2022Description: 3 p. ; 88-90 In: Journal of Petroleum Technology Summary: Legacy fields require innovative solutions for developing capitally efficient projects within highly developed acreage blocks. As another tool to improve well economics, a U-turn lateral strategy was implemented in the Eagle Ford Shale. This wellbore trajectory resulted in capturing a 9,200-ft equivalent lateral length well in a 5,000-ft-wide lease space.
