Zusammenfassung: | A method of drilling a relief well to intercept a target well in an Earth formation, wherein Measurement While Drilling (MWD) survey data is used for estimation of the distance to and the direction towards the target well without assumptions for the remnant magnetic field. The method uses a combination of MWD measurements and calculated 3D well paths for the accurate estimation of the distance to and the direction towards the target well. |
