Arctic,

No not Badami! We are drilling slimhole, sidetracked horizontal development wells from inside existing wells in Prudhoe Bay with a Hybrid Workover and Coiled Tubing Drilling Rig. Very state of the art. The big players are SLB and BHI. The rig has just completed 45 wells over a 2 yr period without any Lost Time Incidents and that covers about 95,000 feet drilled. The average length is now well over 2200 feet outside the original casing of the old well. This is drainhole technology. Some wells produce up to 9,000 bbls oil per day.

Later dude,

Paul.
