For the first time, high-frequency cutter force data can be translated into detailed borehole images.
True innovation isn’t just about looking ahead… It’s also about seeing what’s been hidden all along.
Introducing the Retina drilling imaging system. Visionary technology uncovering new insights into formation characterization by creating high-resolution borehole images - right at the drill bit.
Featuring an innovative recording mode, the Retina system integrates into PDC drill bits, gathering critical data while you drill. You’ll see layers, dips, and complex rock formations with unprecedented clarity. And it works anywhere.
You’re no longer restricted by drilling fluid types or hole sizes. The Retina system analyzes formations in the toughest environments, overcoming challenges like washouts and incomplete data. It gives you a clear picture of the borehole, so you don’t have to rely on estimates to fill in data gaps. And, seamlessly works across alternating high- and low-resistivity formations - all in a single trip.
Simple to deploy. Easy to operate. The Retina system fits perfectly into the workflows of geologists, geophysicists, and completion teams - elevating efficiency and boosting productivity. Photorealistic resolution, accurate dip measurement, and exceptional coverage. This is a whole new perspective on formation characterization.
With the Retina system, the future and your wells have never been clearer.
