Welcome to V2H Australia
V2H Australia is a world leader in innovative vertical-to-horizontal jetting technologies providing lower well capex and opex costs and higher productivity and recoverability to the resource industry.
Technology
V2H Australia has exclusive access to two types of vertical-to-horizontal jetting technologies developed through separate entities, with alternate end uses in mind. The IP associated with both entities is complementary and value adding, with hybrids of the systems already operating in the field.
Benefits
Technical
Drilling multiple laterals in multiple zones from one vertical wellbore allows a significant drainage area from one low cost well.
Economic
Lower capital costs drilling multi-lateral, multi-zone vertical wells with the added benefit of fewer production wells for even greater capital efficiency. Work over existing wells where pay is trapped behind pipe to unlock value with existing infrastructure.
Environment
Unlike fracking, no hydraulic fracturing of the rock occurs. Controlled deployment allows a surveyed drill path within the target strata, defining the aerial extent of the drainage / stimulation.
Safety
Deployed using remote control from outside the hazardous zone and operates in conjunction with secondary well control, blow out preventers (BOP’s).
Environment
State and Federal Governments are bowing to public pressure and adding significant governance around well construction, the disclosure around the chemicals pumped during fracture stimulation, ground water monitoring of shallow aquifers and at the other end of the scale, banning fracture stimulation via moratoriums.
