Operations
Directional Drilling & Measurement Services
Precise well placement and real-time downhole intelligence.
Overview
Faithworth's directional drilling and measurement capability delivers accurate, controlled well placement and the real-time data that informs critical drilling decisions. Through directional drilling, measurement while drilling (MWD), and logging while drilling (LWD), we help operators reach target reservoirs efficiently while managing the risks of complex well paths.
Services
Directional drilling
Controlled well-path drilling to reach targets that vertical wells cannot, across deviated, horizontal, and directional profiles.
MWD and LWD services
Real-time measurement of well-path direction and inclination alongside formation data while drilling, supporting precise steering and informed decisions without interrupting operations.
Tool rentals and maintenance
Supply of directional and measurement tools on a rental basis, with maintenance to keep the string available and in service.
