Onshore Drilling Operations

Our clients carefully plan for drilling new wells or working on existing wells by a time lined bar chart. This plan is normally for three- year operation. It is updated occasionally to reflect the actual and planned operations.

Based on the bar chart, the rigs are assigned to particular wells for that year. Respective Drilling Team Managers review planned rig moves and prepares work scopes such as landscaping the site prior to rigging up.

Wells to be drilled are planned ahead of time. The planning takes into account the objective of the well. It may be for exploration or work-over, a gas or oil producer and a water or gas injector.

When the well has been drilled successfully, NDC tests the well and begins to run- in completions and installing the Christmas tree. All activities are performed in strict compliance with existing government regulations to ensure no harm is caused to the environment.
