TEST TEST Abstract: Recent developments in LWD imaging technology have enable the acquisition of high-resolution acoustic borehole image logs in both water-based and oil-based mud. The upgraded tool records acoustic amplitude, travel-time and sensor spatial position data in high frequency, from which it is possible to make borehole images with 256 azimuthal sector sampling. Additionally,…

Many thanks to our February speakers Emmanuel Tavernier and our own Chee-Kong Chen, for an exciting presentation on technology developments in production logging using microelectro-mechanical systems and it’s potential future applications. Very much appreciated Emmanuel & Chee-Kong! “Efficiency Improvements in Production Profiling Using Ultracompact Flow Array Sensing Technology”
A belated, but very big thank you to our January speaker David Dangfa, for presenting on an innovative P&A approach, using salt as natural zonal barrier. Many thanks David!
Abstract: Production logging in highly deviated and horizontal are known to be challenging. While conventional array tools have improved to provide answer in some wells, challenge remain with very long tool strings and limitation of sensors. The presentation will introduce a new instrumentation technology using microelectro-mechanical system (MEMS). The technology offers an ultracompact and modular…

Abstract: At the end of the production life of a field, it is mandatory to abandon the well(s) to avoid the escape of formation fluids to surface and maintain well integrity. Appropriate barriers (mechanical or natural) are required across various intervals with flow potential for safe abandonment. At times, remedial operations such as perf-wash and/or…
