Proven results from radial drilling operations across 32 countries and six continents.
Radial Drilling Services has delivered measurable productivity increases for major operators worldwide. The following case studies highlight a selection of our field results across diverse reservoir types and geographies — from the Neuquen Basin in Argentina to the oil fields of Siberia.
RDS delivered substantial productivity increases for an Argentinian operator in the Neuquen region — one of South America's most prolific hydrocarbon basins. Radial laterals penetrated bypassed pay zones, unlocking reserves that conventional methods could not access.
ALL CASE STUDIES
RDS successfully delivered a live well intervention for Rio Napo in Ecuador, demonstrating the capability of radial drilling technology in active production environments without killing the well or interrupting production.
Radial Drilling achieved a major productivity increase exceeding 120% for Lukoil Perm, proving the technology's effectiveness in mature Russian fields with tight, low-permeability formations that had seen declining production.
RDS significantly increased production at Petrobras's Maria Ines del Oeste and Puesto Peter fields, delivering measurable uplift across multiple well interventions in both conventional and unconventional reservoir settings.
Radial Drilling completed a successful trial at the North Urtabaluk field for Tethys Petroleum in Uzbekistan, opening new production potential in a challenging Central Asian reservoir with complex geological conditions.
RDS completed challenging production zones in the Cerro Dragon field for Pan American Energy, demonstrating the versatility of radial drilling in complex geological settings with multiple pay zones and tight reservoir rock.
A radial drilling pilot project was executed for the development of hard-to-recover oil and gas condensate deposits in Siberia, proving the technology in extreme conditions and unlocking reserves previously considered uneconomic.
Radial Drilling delivered productivity increases for Petrobras Brazil across both depleted formations and new drill wells, showcasing the breadth of application for the technology in one of the world's largest oil companies.
RDS delivered a productivity increase for ENAP Chile in low-producing and depleted wells, revitalizing assets that would otherwise have been abandoned and extending the economic life of mature fields.
