You've lost me, Taff. I do not understand your question\comments. But, you will recall that after the relief well was plugged back, they salvaged roughly 10,000 feet of that wellbore. They then cut a hole in the side of the casing string of that well and "kicked off" drilling directionally (but nearly vertical) to a location which originally was targetted to be within 500-1000 feet of the blowout hole. When they get that "new hole" cased and cemented to the top of the Temblor, they will deepen the hole to total depth. There's not a lot of deliberate zigs, zags or "S" bends involved here although there will be some directional "drift", there always is.

Hope this helps to clarify the "picture" for you.

Later,
