Geological wells, pre-exploration wells, detailed exploration wells, and evaluation wells are all types of wells that are drilled with the intention of collecting geological data. Typically, exploration wells are drilled vertically.
(1) Pre-exploration wells: These are wells that are dug to find new oil and gas reservoirs in established oil fields. They are wells that are dug in favorable traps identified by intensive seismic analysis and thorough geological research.
(2) Detailed exploration wells: These are wells that are dug in newly discovered oil and gas traps to understand the structure and oil production potential of the oil and gas layers as well as to prove the boundaries and reserves of the oil and gas.
(3) Evaluation well: when the oil and gas reservoir is found in the preexploration well, this well is dug to demonstrate the oil and gas area and geological reserves of the trap.
Drilling exploratory wells requires a lot of time and money because the conditions of the formation are unknown, cores must be taken, and geological data must be measured.
Exploration wells are the general term for geological exploration wells, pre-exploration wells, and detailed exploration wells (evaluation wells). Oil, gas, water, and gas injection wells that are dug for oil production are one type of development well. The other type includes adjustment wells, supplemental wells, resource well inspection wells, etc.
The full oil and gas production line is among the items produced by Esimtech, a developer of simulation training systems for the sector. A few examples include drilling simulators, well control simulators, and emergency training simulators. View our product categories.
