D&R Directional

D&R is pleased to announce that we have become a corporate sponsor with Indspire, a national Indigenous-led registered charity that invests in the education of Indigenous people for the long-term benefit of these individuals, their families, their communities, and Canada.

D&R Directional values and respects the unique history of Indigenous peoples and believes in working with Indigenous communities in a spirit of relationship building based on mutual respect and trust.

We’d also like to thank Cindy Ball, VP of Development for Indspire for coming to sit down with Donald and getting D&R connected.

We came flying out of the gate after breakup, laying down 2 back to back record wells using our new BADGER equipment. Our crews are certainly on their game. We wish all the competitors at the 2018 Calgary Stampede good luck and are getting excited to watch them perform at the top of their game. Yahoo!

Spring is Here!! From all of us at D&R Directional, have a safe and happy spring breakup. We look forward to being your first choice for directional on your summer drilling program.

Took our new tools for a test drive last week. The new DR-ONE proved to deliver when we found ourselves geosteering into a troublesome zone not compatible with EM signal.
We successfully shot 13 of our 72 lateral surveys with the pulse end of the tool when EM signal was lost as well as maintaining our gamma log integrity through the section. We saved a trip for mud pulse tools and by using EM where available which saved our client 4 additional hours of surveying time over using solely mud pulse.

After the Christmas break and firing the rigs back up during the coldest weeks of the winter, D&R crews were able to hammer out 3 record wells on 3 separate rigs. This one in particular stood out due to it being our first well drilled entirely below the surface shoe with our own BADGER line of motors.
