- Steerable drilling tools
- Real-time data monitoring
- Advanced surveying techniques
- Ability to reach targets more accurately and efficiently
Pros
- Increased access to hard-to-reach oil and gas reservoirs
- Reduced environmental impact by minimizing surface disturbance
- Improved wellbore stability and integrity
Cons
- Higher upfront costs compared to vertical drilling
- Requires specialized equipment and expertise
- Potential for complications in wellbore navigation
