geoVISION Imaging while Drilling
Real-time resistivity measurements
The geoVISION imaging-while-drilling service makes drilling more productive by saving rig time and reducing costs. High-resolution images delivered in real time reveal formation structure and geological features, such as fractures, enabling steering to the best place—faster.
The geoVISION downhole tool can be configured to make up to five resistivity measurements, and three azimuthally focused button electrodes offer multiple depths of investigation to permit quantification of invasion profiles. An integral cylindrical electrode delivers high-resolution lateral resistivity. A bit resistivity measurement allows real-time coring and casing point selection in both conductive and resistive mud environments.The service is ideal for a number of challenging environments, including shale gas.
