Formation Testing While Drilling Enables Successful Pressure Data Acquisition in Depleted Reservoir Zone Not Previously Possible with Wireline Logging in Kuwait: A Success Story

Abstract: Formation testing while drilling (FTWD) proved to be of great value to the asset team at Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) while recently drilling a deep, deviated well to target the Zubair sands. The deviated 8-1/2-in. hole section of the well had been planned to cut through more than 1,100 ft of true vertical thickness containing multiple reservoir units with varying pressures, lithologies, and formation characteristics, which posed a great risk for drilling operations and required the use of relativel… Show more
