This can be defined as a multi-branch well which has more than one vertical, inclined or horizontal hole drilled from a single platform and connected back to a single wellbore.
According to PetroWiki, multilateral wells are new evolution of horizontal wells in which several wellbore branches radiate from the main borehole.
Time is money, they say, lol. Some companies want to get much oil to the surface at the earliest possible time, to increase the return on investment, and multi-lateral wells might be employed.
