³ÉÈ˶¶Òõ Licenses Shell's U-Lateral Drilling Technology for the US
Our mission at ³ÉÈ˶¶Òõ has always been to make it easier, faster and safer to power our world. Today marks an exciting milestone in that journey. We are thrilled to announce that ³ÉÈ˶¶Òõ will exclusively license Shell’s U-lateral drilling technology to energy companies across the US.
Developed by Shell, U-lateral drilling offers significant benefits for an industry where efficiency is more important than ever before. By enabling rigs to drill more reservoir footage per month, reducing both the cost per foot of reservoir accessed and the cost per barrel of oil produced, the U-lateral technique allows operators to reduce drilling costs and save time while effectively increasing the production capacity of each surface rig by 50%. The technology also unlocks access to previously stranded acreage, allowing energy companies to maximize their land use and reduce their environmental impact compared to traditional well designs.Â
As the leading source-to-pay solution for the energy industry, ³ÉÈ˶¶Òõ is uniquely positioned to bring this innovative technology to market. Operators can now license U-lateral drilling from ³ÉÈ˶¶Òõ on a per-well basis, with seamless integration into their existing purchasing workflows. Our team will handle all program contracts and administration, making it easy for energy companies to leverage this technology as part of their operational strategy.
This exclusive licensing agreement is the latest addition in an exciting expansion of ³ÉÈ˶¶Òõ's offerings. From our roots in labor — we are still the country’s leading energy workforce provider — and our nationwide vendor network spanning hundreds of service categories, to the introduction of custom-built software and services that streamline essential processes like vendor management and bidding, we’ve been steadfastly committed to helping energy companies work more efficiently in a challenging and fast-changing world.
With the addition of cutting-edge technology licensing to our suite of services, we're taking that commitment to the next level.
We're proud to license Shell's U-lateral drilling technology to the energy companies we serve. Together, we're empowering the industry to increase production, reduce costs and operate more sustainably — all critically important priorities as global energy demand continues to rise.
