A special class of short-radius wells is the ultra-short radius well, which effectively has no bend section. Ultra-short drilling methods employ jetting techniques and coiled tubing to eliminate angle build sections, and are used in soft, unconsolidated formations to drill multiple drainholes from existing vertical wells. 4, record 1, English, - ultra%2Dshort%20radius%20well

Contrairement aux puits verticaux, les puits horizontaux ont une productivité qui est très peu sensible au diamètre du trou. Pour les puits à long rayon de courbure et donc à longue section horizontale (300 m et plus), le diamètre généralement utilisé est de 8,5 pouces. Les puits à faible rayon de courbure qui nécessitent l'utilisation de garnitures de forage articulées sont forés en plus petit diamètre, 4 pouces généralement. 2, record 1, French, - puits%20horizontal%20%C3%A0%20tr%C3%A8s%20faible%20rayon%20de%20courbure
