The Jasmine Field, located in the Gulf of Thailand, comprises multiple oil deposits embedded in thinly stacked-sand layers. Due to multiple existing wells in the area, the well plan required an S-shaped well profile with a tangent section covering over 3,700 feet at 78° inclination. This complex well plan required special consideration to magnetic interference corrupting the magnetic survey readings, as well as wellbore collision risks during drilling operations. To minimize wellbore placement uncertainties, Gyrodata was requested to provide a real-time, high accuracy survey solution th
