SLB Directional Drilling Services steers wells to target depth with rotary steerable systems, drilling motors, and directional expertise.
SLB's directional drilling services line supplies rotary steerable systems such as PowerDrive, at-bit steerable tools, drilling motors, and turbodrills used to steer wells along extended-reach, horizontal, and complex trajectories. The offering is documented on SLB's official directional drilling services page within its well construction portfolio.
The service line is delivered to oil and gas operators alongside SLB's measurement-while-drilling and drilling optimization systems, and its stated development path includes autonomous directional drilling capabilities. Applications span conventional and unconventional wells where wellbore placement determines reservoir contact and drilling cost.
