Method and apparatus for single run cutting of well casing and forming subsurface lateral passages from a well

摘要

An apparatus and system for a single run process for well installations to cut or mill away a section of the casing of a well and then position an attached deflecting device to form radial boreholes or passages in a production formation that is intersected by the wellbore. This invention allows the lateral boreholes to be selectively oriented angularly upwardly or downwardly in relation to the casing space that has been formed or oriented in selectively radially spaced relation if desired.
