ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a novel horizontal well bore system. More particularly, the invention relates to the setting of a conductor casing, drilling a well bore to a horizontal position, drilling and screening the horizontal/lateral section of the well, filter packing the well screen, and installing any necessary pumping equipment. The resulting lateral well bore and the method disclosed for forming the same are particularly useful in environmental applications.
