Fast, high-quality data for accurate geosteering and formation evaluation

Increase ROP, improve wellbore stability and hole quality, and optimize well placement and reservoir exposure for maximum production—faster.

As the industry leader in logging-while-drilling (LWD) technology, SLB creates advanced LWD services that acquire high-quality data for accurate geosteering and more-informed formation evaluation, so you can work proactively as you drill.
