This work discusses the slant hole project undertaken by Ocelot Industries Ltd. in the Bantry field located in SE Alberta. Slant hole drilling is not uncommon to Canada; however, it has been primarily used in the heavy oil projects. This study begins with Ocelot's need for slant hole drilling and the planning of the wells. The drilling and completion operations and some of the equipment that was developed as the project progressed are discussed.
