Extended reach drilling, particularly in deep water, is complex and costly. Mistakes can cost operators millions of dollars to remediate, and optimal return on investment demands that the driller use ...

LWD sensors include directional measurements of inclination and azimuth, gamma ray, and resistivity. Surface drilling parameter sensors include pump rate, standpipe pressure, surface rotary speed, ...

Oil and gas deposits are present in the strata of the Earth's crust and these hydrocarbon resources are accessed by drilling vertical and horizontal wells. In order to minimize risks and optimize ...

Real-time detection and estimation of overpressured formations is now possible using sonic and other logging-while-drilling (LWD) measurements. Data acquired from an overpressured formation in the ...

Forward Modeling Software for resistivity open hole electrode tools, wireline induction tools and 2MHz-LWD propagation tools. Resistivity Inversion Services: from systematic to expert inversion ...

Dirk Bosman of APS Technology says measurement and logging while drilling is now firmly in the domain of the region’s local oilfield service companies. APS Technology Inc. is an independent US ...
