Service 03 / 06
Integrated software and specialist workflows for steering horizontal and highly deviated wells with greater confidence.
Capability overview
The Geonaft suite combines real-time data, correlation tools, and geological modeling in one environment. It supports both connected and disconnected workflows and is designed for the complexities of LWD and MWD data.
The operational challenge
A pre-drill trajectory cannot fully represent the structural and stratigraphic uncertainty encountered by the bit. In horizontal and high-angle sections, small interpretation delays can move the wellbore away from the intended interval or reduce useful reservoir exposure.
Zima's approach
Zima's workflow continuously compares incoming directional and formation measurements with the geological model. Correlations and model updates give the geology and directional teams a common basis for timely trajectory decisions.
Scope
Delivery workflow
The exact program is adapted to the well, operating environment, available data, and the client's decision criteria.
Compile offset-well information, target boundaries, expected log responses, and uncertainty into the working model.
Load and quality-check directional, MWD, LWD, and available geological information as the section is drilled.
Compare observed responses with the prognosis, update boundaries, and evaluate alternative interpretations.
Communicate steering context, preserve the decision history, and deliver an updated post-well interpretation.
