摘要

This Cooperative Program was a field oriented effort whose objectives were to drill, complete, and test a high-angle deviated well targeting the Devonian Shale interval. The geologic objective of the deviated well was to intersect siltstone-rich intervals of the Chagrin Shale and Lower Huron member. The engineering objectives were two-fold: (1) drill and complete the well with a minimum of problems, and (2) test and analyze pressure transient tests on intersected pay zones. The well was air drilled, logged, and cemented at a high angle. However, the completion and testing phases were curtailed because testing was limited to a single interval. This report focuses on the geology of the area and illustrates the research activities accomplished on the well. In addition, observations and conclusions are presented.
