MUD LOGGING

Detailed cuttings analysis and gas detection can be expanded to include reservoir evaluation services that reduce the guesswork inherent in drilling and completing oil and gas wells, and drilling optimization services that minimize unexpected events and wellsite risk.

WELLWIZARD FEATURES

Viewing of multiple wells, in RT or historical data offsets. Each user can configure individual screen displays, unit preferences, track layouts, scales etc… Events Library for storing & viewing data files, spreadsheets, word documents etc., associated by depth or time. Ability to report and view all DD, MWD, LWD, LWT, Wireline data TVD log plotting. Import /Export of all numerical data (LAS, ASCII, WITS etc.).

Mud Logging Unit

Datalog cabins are designed, built & independently certified by DNV to meet this extreme standard of safety.
Quality Output
We cultivate our own talent.
Mud logging requires individuals with unique skill sets, so we provide our specialists with competency-based training that complements their field experience.
As a result, you have access to a global team of highly qualified mudlogging experts.

Advanced Kick Detection

Flow Back Monitoring
Analyzing connection “flow back” trends to identify kicks. Every connection mud flows back to pits, traditional kick detection is almost blind because of increase pit volume and lack of flow, & reduction in ECD while pumps are off makes it more likely a kick will occur.
Software automatically plots fluid flow at each connection, any deviation from “normal” is easily recognised, by Driller or Mud Loggers.

High Speed Gas Chromatography

Default C1, C2, C3, IC4, NC4, IC5, NC5 & C02 (others possible), sampled & analysed every 30 seconds (or less).
Non-flammable Helium reference gas (safety consideration, particular in offshore work).
Columns with independent solid state injection, analytical & reference column, thermal conductivity detector.
Excellent separation of all gases.

Gas Ratio Analysis

The ANAX 500 system provides several gas ratio analysis methods processing data from the high speed chromatograph.
RT wetness, balance and character ratios indicate the hydrocarbon type specified as its grade (heavy oil, medium, light, condensate gas, light gas).
Individual plots of specified zones generate Pixler Plots to characterize productive or non productive oil or gas, with relative permeability.
The users may define their own hydrocarbon ratios (or ratios from any other parameter calculated by the ANAX 500 system.
Standard hydrocarbon gas ratios are used to determine oil/gas/water contacts.
