GWA13 was the last well during Phase 1 of the development of the Goodwyn field and was drilled to a total depth of 8420m (27620') AHD with a horizontal step out of 7372m (24190') at a TVD of 2866m (9400'). The paper describes the planning processes before spud, and the equipment, techniques and directional control used during the drilling phase. Lessons that can be applied to both our own and other operations will be listed. The team approach to the drilling of Goodwyn wells will be emphasised and the risk assessment measures used both in the office and on the rig will be detailed. P. 271
