Controlled directional drilling makes is possible to reach subsurface areas laterally remote from the point where the bit enters the earth. It often involves the use of turbodrills, Dyna-Drills, whipstocks, or other deflecting rods
directional survey

A single-shot directional-survey instrument makes a single photograph of a compass reading of the draft direction and the number of degrees the hole is off vertical. A multishot survey instrument obtains numerous readings in the hole as the device is pulled out of the well. See also : directional drilling
