In the context of oil wells, a dogleg refers to a deviation or change in the wellbore trajectory. It occurs when the wellbore deviates from the vertical or straight path and takes on a curved or angled shape. Doglegs can be intentional, designed to navigate around obstacles or reach specific targets, or they can be unintentional, resulting from geological formations or drilling challenges. Managing doglegs is crucial for maintaining wellbore stability and drilling efficiency.
too much useful informations , thanks a lot.
Thank you that mean lot to me

What is Dog leg?
The intentional change in inclination or azimuth created in well bore to get desired well path doing directional drilling.
@@deepeshpathak.7 they aren’t always intentional! lol

Simply dog leg severity is the change in inclination per 100 ft
