Gyro Surveying Services

Gyro surveying services utilize North Seeking Gyro technology capable of surveying at 200 ft/min in continuous mode. The system requires no on-site calibration and provides real-time QA/QC checks downhole. It can be run in real-time with wireline trucks or dropped inside the drill string and supports temperature surveys and rig-less applications. Advantages include significant cost savings, extremely precise wellbore placement, identification of micro-dog legs, and reliable performance in magnetic interference zones. The services integrate with other MWD tools for comprehensive directional control.

Benefits

• Optimize completion techniques to increase production
• Design a low risk drilling program with fewer anti-collision projections
• Maximize well spacing
• Reduce rig time and costs with continuous survey intervals

Drilling Applications

• Wireline continuous north seeking gyro
• Memory runs
• Rigless operations (utilizing our trailer mounted crane)
• Active well operations

Production Applications

• Rod wear
• Rod guides
• Tubing wear

Technology Features

• Equipped with continuous mode for significant time savings
• Can be run in drill pipe, casing, or tubing (min. ID 2")
• Continuous survey increments at any interval (ie: 1ft-100ft)
• Capable of providing full pressure control package that includes lubricators, pack off, tool trap and BOP system
• Temperature surveys provide an estimate of the location of the top of the cement casing and can indicate zones of lost circulation

Our gyro surveying division is based in Midland, Texas.
