Phase I of this two-phase geomechanical study evaluates the extent to which drilling problems that have historically affected Wilrich horizontal wells are geomechanical in nature. Drilling reviews of four horizontal wells and an analysis of a planned horizontal drilling plan are included. In Phase II, two additional Bluesky/Gething horizontal wells were reviewed.

Deliverables include:

• Drilling experience plots.
• Image Log.
• Minimum Principal Stress.
• Pore Pressure
• Rock Properties analyses.
