Directional drilling (or slant drilling) is the practice of drilling non-vertical . It can be broken down into four main groups: directional drilling, utility installation directional drilling, (horizontal directional drilling - HDD), and surface in seam (SIS), which horizontally intersects a vertical bore target to extract . Horizontal directional drilling bores underneath obstacles with a guided bit. The operator steers the bore head utilizing an angled pipe, pressurized fluids, and a steering tool that provides depth and positioning feedback.
[pdf] The Well Control System or the Blowout Prevention System on a drilling rig is the system that prevents the uncontrolled, catastrophic release of high-pressure fluids (oil, gas, or salt water) from subsurface formations. These uncontrolled releases of formation fluids are referred to as Blowouts.
