虽然延长侧井长度可以带来巨额利润，但这种风险可能并不总是值得的。在 Hart Energy 的 SUPER DUG 中，Diamondback Energy、SLB、NOV 和其他公司权衡了钻探 3 英里和 4 英里支线的风险和回报。
不久前，Diamondback Energy 总裁兼首席财务官 Kaes Van't Hof 对钻探一口 21,000 英尺的侧井持怀疑态度。

“几年前，我说过我们永远不会钻四英里的支线，”范霍夫在哈特能源公司的 SUPER DUG 会议暨博览会上说道。现在，“我们在这里，说我们应该钻四英里的支线，你知道，几乎尽我们所能。”

While extended length lateral wells can lead to massive profits, the risk might not always be worth it. At Hart Energy’s SUPER DUG, Diamondback Energy, SLB, NOV and others weighed the risk and rewards of drilling three- and four-mile laterals.
Not that long ago, Diamondback Energy President and CFO Kaes Van't Hof was skeptical, to put it mildly, about drilling a 21,000-ft lateral well.

“A few years ago, I said we'll never drill four mile laterals,” Van’t Hof said at Hart Energy’s SUPER DUG Conference & Expo. Now, “here we are, saying we should be drilling four-mile laterals, you know, almost as much as we can.”
