1. Case Study – Foothills Region, Canada 2008 CASING DRILLING TM Plastering Success 9-5/8” casing x 12-1/4” EZCase drilled from 850 M to 1,250 M CD effectively reduced lost circulation while drilling NPT reduction > 50% Days from Drill-out of Previous Casing Measured depth, meters 0 2 46 8 10 12 860 960 1060 1160 1260

3. Artic Permafrost Application Mackenzie Delta –Canada Conventional Drilling Issues Keeping Permafrost frozen is critical to wellbore stability. Hydrates and borehole erosion. Mud cooling is required. Conventional drilling requires high flow rates for hole cleaning. Lots of problems with high flow rate coolers. Difficult to keep hole stabile while tripping to run casing. Small pumps dictated by ice road limits. SPE paper 111806

4. Artic Permafrost Application Mackenzie Delta –Canada Casing Drilling Solution Drilling with casing: eliminated need to trip. allowed good cleaning at low flow rates. minimized pressure losses (heating). implemented with small pumps BHA: 17-1/2 EZCase bit, stab, float collar, joint of casing, float collar, stab, 4 jts casing, stab, csg Mud cooling. KCl polymer mud (8-10% KCl depresses freezing) Spiral heat exchanger, ammonia refrigerant, glycol heat exchanger fluid Spiral exchanger minimized plugging but gave adequate contact surface and time.

5. Conclusions/Observations Minimized flat time. No borehole stability issues. Cooling system & CD prevented permafrost from degrading. Extended casing setting depth well below base of permafrost. Kept ROP below 15m/hr to minimize need to stop drilling and circulate for hydraulic lift. Walnut hull sweeps used to control balling. EZCase drilled out with TCI bit.

6. CASING DRILLING ® Project Summary Pan American ENERGY, Argentina  PAE received approval from government to extend its Cerro Dragon concession (4000 Km 2 ) to 2017. They will drill approximately 300 wells /year.  At least 10% of these well will benefit from CwD, due to problems associated to Water Injection/ depletion problems (High Losses).  CwD project initiated as Enhanced Productivity Project (rather than Drilling)  A typical well is cased with 9 5/8” @ 300m & 5 ½” @ 2,400m.  Tesco ® Project: Evaluate a 5 well Project with 5½” BRT® OBJECTIVE: To be able to drill the production hole with minimum NPT associated to losses, trips, allowing a positive impact on the productivity of the well

7. Pan American ENERGY Project Summary  Successfully drilled both areas: Averaged 14 days/well.  Reduce NPT related to loss circulation and highly damaged reservoirs.  Reduced production hole from 13 to 11 days.  Good quality wells: Better CBL’s and one well did not require fracturing.  C Grande previously considered not accessible.  Value: Less Completion Costs & possibly better productivity.
