Overview:

- Continuous MWD/gMWD monitoring
          - Continuous monitor total field interference in top hole section compare with design
          - Proximity to closest well is positively detected by MWD ranging when gyro
survey well-path or surveys are not as designed
          - Decision to drill ahead or plug back based on known location of closest well

- Preliminary risk estimate

- 30ppf casing weight, 200nT BtotalDip interference threshold, 2m bit clearance before contact

- Significant improvement in detection with 30 degree approach (v 40deg)

- Eventually 3-d graphics (of course)

-ƒ Specify casing size to detect

ƒ- Specify “noise” level

ƒ- Result is area where NO POSSIBLE CASING THIS SIZE (or larger) can be present
