Less Impactive Oil-Gas Exploration and Production Strategies
"TOR ERD" study for block 56 was an analysis of why that particular wellfield could be pumped through extended reach drilling or ERD. This technology would greatly reduce the cultural and environmental impacts of drilling on and near an indigenous reserve with potential indigenous populations living in voluntary isolation. It is excellent background on the subject and contains a number of backup documents on ERD and its use in different environments.
Attachment F to the Block 56 Report provides an easy to read report on end usage in Europe.
