CTDirect Ultraslim LWD Array Resistivity
Coiled tubing logging-while-drilling service
Optimizing formation evaluation and well placement
CTDirect Ultraslim LWD Array Resistivity™ coiled tubing logging-while-drilling service is a new and advanced ultraslimhole wave propagation resistivity measurement tool for formation evaluation and well placement. Specially designed for coiled tubing drilling applications, it enables the evaluation, development, and production of reservoirs while minimizing reservoir damage. With its built-in geosteering workflow, this innovative technology helps maximize reservoir contact while boosting production potential. Its robust design ensures reliable operation even in harsh drilling environments, including high-temperature conditions, delivering greater efficiency, cost savings, and improved drilling performance.
