Horizontal Well Resources

Horizontal Drilling Mud Program

The horizontal drilling mud program and its interactions with the surrounding geology is critical for the pace of the drilling, environmental effects, and stability of the borehole during installation.

How To Remediate Tight Soils

The problem with tight soils, like clays, saprolites, and as far as geology goes - bedrock formations, is that contamination tends to migrate primarily through preferential pathways. The best way to prevent contamination from intruding into businesses or migrating off-site is to intercept those pathways with horizontal remediation wells.

What is a Conceptual Site Model (CSM)?

A conceptual site model (CSM) is a comprehensive history of a particular contaminated site.

What is an Extraction Well?

An extraction well is a specific type of well that is used to remove a certain medium from the subsurface.

What are volatile organic carbons (VOCs)?

Volatile Organic Carbons (VOCs) are more or less an umbrella term, which can originate from a range of varying contaminants, such as chlorinated solvents and gasoline byproducts.

How does Contamination get into Soil and How to Treat It

Generally, two processes cause contamination to enter soil.

What is Soil Vapor?

Learn what soil vapor is and the effect it can have if left untreated.

Exploring the Benefits of Horizontal Soil Vapor Extraction Wells

Installing horizontal soil vapor extraction wells through directional drilling eliminates the client’s frustrations of business interruptions, while directly impacting the source to knock-out remaining soil contamination.

Post-Closure Analysis Proves Success of Enhanced Hydrocarbon Bioremediation Using Twelve Horizontal Sparge Wells at Petroleum Products Bulk Terminal

A major oil storage facility (MOSF) in New York was successfully remediated in the late 1990’s using a horizontal well air sparge system.

Lower Project Lifecycle Costs with Horizontal Well Technology

The superior physics of horizontal well screens avoid dead zones, provide more rapid pore volume exchange rates, and result in significantly faster time-to-closure.
