Wed 20 May 98 News Release
Mr. Mark Andreychuck reports
Further to news in Stockwatch March 27, 1998, Lee Tool, a division of
Schlumberger Canada, has confirmed the association of Lee Tool logging
systems and the Cancoil coiled tubing rig will have the potential to reduce
the current industry costs for horizontal logging operations, thus making
the service more attractive for oil and gas companies. Horizontal wells are
a growing part of the oil and gas industry. New technology to increase the
efficiency and reduce the cost of servicing these wells is long overdue.
Lee Tool and Cancoil believe optimizing the rig-in time and reducing the
operational costs through the utilization of the advanced leading edge
Cancoil rig design would increase the number of wells that oil and gas
companies log. The industry has tremendous potential for growth in the area
of horizontal logging and Cancoil has addressed the logistical mobilization
issues hindering the coiled tubing logging servicing industry, making the
logging package and performance more attractive to oil and gas companies.
Typically oil and gas companies log only problematic horizontal wells,
however now that more economic technology is available, clients will be
more willing to log horizontal wells to gain an understanding of the
reservoir or to evaluate stimulation techniques. Typically, a conventional
rig in for coiled tubing logging today could take as much as two days with
a substantial amount of equipment. Cancoil has integrated the rig in to be
conducted in a matter of a couple hours with substantially less equipment
and manpower required on location. In summary, the technology made
available through Lee Tool and Cancoil has the potential to expand the
horizontal well logging market.
Cancoil is planning on installing the Lee Tool computer hardware into the
rig control cabin in early July. The logging tools are ready for operation
and will be added to the rig as required in August.
Radius, Inc., a Houston, Texas based directional drilling company has
agreed to exclusively supply Cancoil with the leading edge directional
wireline drilling tools. The bottom hole assembly (BHA) being supplied by
Radius is the first of its kind with respect to being substantially cost
effective and small and versatile. The surface computer hardware for the
BHA will be installed into the Cancoil control cabin in June. The first BHA
will be available at the end of July. The BHA is less then 30 feet in
length and has the ability to provide direction, inclination and gamma ray
on mono cable. The first string will be hydraulically orientated with a
patented new orientation tool. The system is much more economical to build
maintain and operate than current industry systems. Radius and Cancoil are
confident the ability to drill underbalanced with a system of this nature
will ultimately create a large client base and generate endless opportunity
for coiled tubing underbalanced directional drilling. Currently, the
directional drilling systems available in the industry today require at
least one full day to rig-in. Cancoil will be able to mobilize quickly and
rig up is estimated to be effective, less then two hours. Minimizing the
logistics for an underbalanced directional drilling rig up will reduce the
well costs substantially, making the technology more attractive for oil and
gas companies.
Newsco Directional & Horizontal Services has agreed to recommend Cancoil to
its existing oil and gas clients for future directional underbalanced
coiled tubing drilling once all the equipment becomes available and is
fully operational in late August.
Cancoil has received letters of interest from substantial oil and gas
companies in Calgary as well as internationally. Cancoil continues to build
and prepare the first unit for a field application. The manufacturing
timeline is on schedule.
