Tulsa oil engineer H. P. Bowen states that all drill holes deflect from vertical. He cites a case where two offset wells intersected at 2,1600 feet and estimates a 6,000 foot hole with a 25 degree deflection would surface about 5,438 feet from its intended location. He notes rotary holes show greater deflection and references Roxana Petroleum’s 6,200 foot well with a 25 degree deflection yielding roughly 5,600 feet of actual depth.
