Prepare sweeps prior to milling operations to aid clean up. Theoretical swarf weight estimation has been noted from whipstock supplier. Consider inclusion of circulation sub in the string for increased hole cleaning capability (especially if milling 7" liner – position circulation at top of liner activate and sweep at high flow rate).
Record total weight of swarf retrieved (ditch magnets, junk basket & string magnets) since start of milling and compare with theoretical milled steel weight. Sweeps should follow the Baroid …
Abstract. When sidetracking a wellbore the decision must be made whether to cut a section or mill a window in the casing. There are specific instances when setting a whipstock and milling a window is the better option. The performance of whipstocks is dependent both on certain well parameters and post milling operations. The parameters such as depth, hole …
A starter mill adapted for use with a whipstock to mill a window through the casing of a well for deviating the direction of drilling. The starter mill includes a bearing nose which is utilized to indicate completion of the milling process. As the mill nears completion of the milling process, the bearing nose will become wedged between the ...
The milling BHA is then run in to begin normal sidetracking operations. On average, these whipstock systems let you complete a sidetrack, in either cemented or noncemented applications, in less than 24 hours. You'll also eliminate cement plug dry time and the potential for drilling through an inferior cement plug.
The TrackMaster Nexus™ Whipstock System is engineered to deliver unparalleled performance in cased hole sidetracking, transforming your operations with faster, more reliable, and …

Section milling involves milling away the complete circumference of a section of the wellbore casing or liner at a predetermined well depth. Window milling is the more economical of the two and can be completed using milling bottomhole assemblies (BHAs) in conjunction with whipstock system equipment.

Typical whipstock operations through uncemented casing can require three or more round trips to prepare a window for drilling ahead. On the GB 783 A-4 BP1 well, window milling/cementing operations through uncemented casing were conducted in a single trip. The whipstock was oriented and set at 11,080 ft measured depth (MD) in a 54° angle hole.
Once free from the whipstock slide, the bimill provides a casing . exit and smooth window to facilitate sidetracks and reentries. The spacing of the lead and follow mill, along with the profile of the whipstock slide top, provide a full-gauge window above the top of the whipstock, enabling a minimized dogleg across the
