Saudi Aramco records world-first at Ghawar well
Saudi Aramco recently upgraded its capability to enhance crude oil production from existing wells, installing the world's first system to allow selective multiple reentries to horizontal wells drilled from vertical wells. The installation of new lateral reentry system-self-locating (LRS-SL) technology took place in a well in the Ghawar field, the world's largest oil field and enables the company to speed up remedial well production tasks without using expensive rigs.
