Techniques for determining a spacing, such as one or more distances, between two or more wellbores formed from a terranean surface to a subterranean formation are described. In some aspects, a wellbore segment is determined for both a first and a second wellbore. One or more distances between the wellbore segments on the first and second wellbores, respectively, is determined. From the determined distance between the wellbore segments on the first and second wellbores, one or more distances between the first and second wellbores may be determined.

In a manual/automatic non-electric-connection borehole clinometer for a landslide, a clinometer probe completes borehole inclination measurement; a hoisting mechanism is connected to the clinometer probe by a pull rope; and a first tooth disc of an automatic clutch and a first tooth disc of a manual clutch are fixed to a left shaft end and a right shaft end of the hoisting mechanism respectively, a second tooth disc of the automatic clutch is fixed to a driving shaft of an electric driving mechanism and selectively meshes with or moves away from the first tooth disc of the automatic clutch, and a second tooth disc of the manual clutch is fixed to a driving shaft of a manual driving mechanism and selectively meshes with or moves away from the first tooth disc of the manual clutch.

Systems and methods for determining azimuth of a wellbore while drilling. A method of drilling a wellbore that includes rotating a drill bit to extend the wellbore into a subterranean formation. The method may further include measuring magnetic toolface with a first magnetometer while rotating the drill bit. The method may further include obtaining a cross-axial magnetic field measurement. The method may further include determining azimuth at a point in the wellbore using at least the magnetic toolface and the cross-axial magnetic field measurement. The method may further include using the azimuth as feedback in the drilling the wellbore.

A method for drilling a subterranean wellbore includes rotating a drill string in the subterranean wellbore. The drill string includes a drill collar, a drill bit, and survey sensors (e.g., a triaxial accelerometer set and a triaxial magnetometer set) deployed therein. The triaxial accelerometer set and the triaxial magnetometer set make corresponding accelerometer and magnetometer measurements while drilling (rotating). These measurements are synchronized to obtain synchronized accelerometer and magnetometer measurements and then further processed to compute at least an inclination and an azimuth of the subterranean wellbore while drilling. The method may further optionally include changing a direction of drilling the subterranean wellbore in response to the computed inclination and azimuth.

A high efficiency smart steering drilling system includes a smart push force application tool and a centralizer. The centralizer is at an end close to a drill bit. The smart push force application tool is at an end away from the drill bit and includes a push force application wing rib having a telescoping function. The smart push force application tool is capable of automatically measuring an inclination angle and an azimuth angle and comparing the inclination angle and the azimuth angle with design values so as to control the push force application wing rib to output a push force in a telescopic manner based on a difference between the measured values and the design values and applying a push force to the drill bit. The drilling system achieves combined deflection under double action of drill bit push and pointing, greatly improving the deflection capability.
