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.
