Buckman Jet Drilling

Buckman Jet Drilling, Inc.,
BJD, has patented a revolutionary
approach to horizontal drilling that can be
used to provide extraordinary returns in the
oil and gas industry. Based on high-pressure
jet drilling technology, the BJD drilling
system provides a highly economical method
for significantly enhancing oil and gas
production on both existing wells and new
wells.
The heart of the drilling system is a patented
cutting nozzle that provides the ability to
penetrate the well casing and drill lateral bore
holes that increase the surface contact with
the oil and gas. The system employs a flexible
hose and nozzle combination which enables
one to go down an existing vertical bore hole
and to turn in a matter of inches to drill
horizontally, rather than using the expensive
method requiring a several feet turning
radius. This short turning radius eliminates
the costly process of under reaming the
casing and borehole. In addition, the precise
nature of the drilling method provides for the
recovery of resources that have previously
been untapped by existing vertical wells, such
as for shallow zones.
