BigBull, I'm not sure of any links to underbalanced drilling, it's so new- but I'm personally a big proponent of the technique. It is essentially underweighting your drilling mud so that you are drilling in an induced blowout status at all times- kinda tricky.

But you can drill more rapidly, more cheaply, complete more easily, and do less damage downhole to the wellbore than in traditional drilling techiques. If you want the phone number of some one in a drilling group who can explain the technique in greater detail, shoot me a private e-mail note....

Sincerely,

Doug F.
