Whipstock Orientation

One of the critical stages in casing window milling is the precise orientation of the whipstock. This task is performed using a high-precision gyroscopic surveying tool, which ensures reliability and full control throughout the operation.

The orientation process is characterized by exceptional accuracy and complete transparency for field personnel. This minimizes the risk of azimuth deviation - not during orientation itself, but during subsequent drilling. Therefore, the use of high-quality surveying tools is essential to the overall success of the sidetracking operation.

SPC "Technology" specialists perform whipstock orientation using a gyroscopic inclinometer placed inside the drill string within a orienting sub. The sub’s design prevents relative rotation between tools, ensuring perfect alignment between the inclinometer and whipstock axes.

We partner with trusted suppliers of gyroscopic systems, maintain our own fleet of high-precision equipment, and employ a team of qualified engineers. This enables us to execute operations of any complexity and consistently deliver high-quality service to our customers.
