[Poetic Engineering]: O well

Poetic impression by Bauke Steenhuisen of the master thesis ‘Well trajectory optimization’ by Ashir Kumar Loomba

Drilling wells is an expensive process.

Thus whenever we can be more clever

We are saving money, time and effort.



Optimizing well trajectory

Requires input from geologists

Drill engineers and geophysicists

Their expertise and their directory.



Determining the perfect minimum

Amount of wells computers ‘pretty well’

Can guess, as does this master student tell



Us. Yet trajectories their optimum

Requires judgment – engineers to dwell

An index finger in their mouth: ‘O well…’
