I can't believe none of them have made the buggy-whip stock joke yet.

Another source on deep directional drilling, below, suggests it is routine. This is one of many that refutes the unsubstantiated claims of 30% success rates made previously on this board.

"To steer the well path, rotary steerable equipment is mounted on the drill pipe just behind the drill bit. These systems can be remotely steered from the surface to redirect the drill bit to deviate the well on any desired path.

Directional drilling can be very precise. Wells kilometres deep can be directed to within centimetres of their targets."

We are 2.3 km deep at the directional plug.
