Chesapeake is on of the major players in the horizontal gas drilling market with lots and lots of wells in the Barnett shale of north Texas. http://www.energyindustryphotos.com/how_oil_and_gas_wells_are_drille.htm
Conventional Drilling is the drilling of a vertical well through reservoir rocks to TD. Directional drilling is the drilling of a non-vertical well horizontaly through a source rock.
An unknown inventor/toolmaker in about 1895.
On a pedestal drill the workpiece is static and the drill is in a vertical position and rotates. On a lathe the workpiece rotates but not the drill, and the drill is in a horizontal position.
An drilling engineer may have many responsibilities. His work day may vary depending on the well or wells that need to be drilled. Generally, drilling engineers work in teams, with other engineers involved in the planning and the actual drilling of wells. No matter how much planning goes into drilling a well, every well is unique and has new challenges. So a drilling engineer is always learning how to drill a well better and safely. So, what activity can I say a drilling engineer does every day, is to communicate with others, to learn from past experiences and be prepared always for unexpected events.
horizontal displacement as per directional drilling?

There is not much information about where Oil well drilling occurs but some well known cities are in Dallas Texas, Mexico, Ontario. One can find more information on the process of oil well drilling among other information on Wikipedia.
