Directional drilling is the process of directing a wellbore along a non-vertical trajectory towards a predetermined target. It involves techniques like whipstocks, jet bits, and downhole motors to gradually build angle in the wellbore. There are three main types of directional well paths: Type I involves continuously building angle to a maximum and then holding; Type II involves building, holding, and dropping the angle; Type III only involves continuously building angle. Survey calculation methods like the average angle method are used to determine the wellbore position between survey points by calculating average inclination and azimuth angles.

The acidizing is pumping of the acids into the wellbore to remove near well formation damage and other damaging substances, matrix acidizing is applied primarily to remove skin damage that caused by drilling, completion, work over, well killing or injection fluids.
This project is concerned with carbonate reservoirs that exceeded in Kurdistan subsurface formations.
Conduct a case study using real industrial data of Arab-D formation (Ghawar oil field – Saudi Arabia) which has five water wells were treated with 50 gallon of HCl acid The treatment acid was placed with coiled tubing and foam was used as diverter. The foam was made from nitrogen, water and surfactants.
Water injection pressure, injection rate and injection flow meter profiles prior to and after the treatment for the five wells show optimistic results to an acceptable extent
In coiled tubing acid placement, the coiled tubing/borehole annulus is usually filled with acid which allow the acid to be in contact with the entire zone at bottom hole temperature condition. This reduces the degree of diversion effectiveness.
Recommend people who work in carbonate reservoirs they should done their work on petrophysical analysis and the porosity should not have exceeded by the acids
The objective of this project is to investigate the measurement methods while drilling a well and perform a general assessment and comparison on the methods.
Drill stem test (DST) is one of the most famous on-site well testing that is used to unveil critical reservoir and fluid properties such as reservoir pressure, average permeability, skin factor and well potential productivity index. It is relatively cheap on-site test that is done prior to well completion. Upon the DST results, usually, the decision of the well completion is taken.

4. What is Directional Drilling?
Directional Drilling is the process of
directing a wellbore along some trajectory
to a predetermined target.
Basically it refers to drilling in a non-vertical
direction. Even “vertical” hole sometimes
require directional drilling techniques.
Examples: Slanted holes, high angle holes (far from vertical), and Horizontal holes.

∴ Horizontal deviation = 372+8,356 tan 25.5
