bend or horizontal portion of the well

When they start fracking they first drill a well - vertically. They they build casing. Once the drill bit hits bottom, a drilling company will drill what is called the "bend," which is the curve the well takes to get into the horizontal portion of the zone.

Depending on the context can also be a "sidetrack" - see Shlumberger oil dictionary http://www.glossary.oilfield.slb.com/Terms/s/sidetrack.aspx
Example sentence:

Once the drill bit hits bottom, or the "pay zone," the company will drill what is called the "bend," which is the curve the well takes to get into the horizontal portion of the zone. The bend alone could take up to two days to drill.
