geovision Resistivity imaging for productive drilling

geovision Resistivity imaging while drilling helps position wells in the best place in the reservoir in less time. Real-time resistivity measurements from the geovision* imagingwhile-drilling service make drilling more productive by saving rig time and reducing costs. The high resolution of geovision images reveals formation structure and geological features, allowing wells to be steered to the best place in the reservoir to enhance production and ROI. Multiple depths of investigation permit detailed geological analysis to pinpoint reserves and optimize completion designs and stimulation strategies. Welcome to productive drilling*. FLEXIBLE BHA CONFIGURATIONS Resistivity measurements from the geovision imaging-while-drilling service can detect and image thin-bed resistivities in conductive BENEFITS Cuts costs by providing key inputs for optimizing completion design and stimulation strategy Identifies thin bed pay zones in conductive mud environments Facilitates putting horizontal wells in the best place within a reservoir by showing wellbore location relative to structure Saves rig time by acquiring data while drilling Provides accurate resistivity measurements in high-resistivity formations

mud environments. This information provides the detailed geological analysis required for geosteering precision in wellbores as small as 8 1 2 in. The geovision downhole tool can be configured to make up to five resistivity measurements. Three azimuthally focused 1-in button electrodes, spaced longitudinally along the axis of the tool, provide multiple depths of investigation that permit quantification of invasion profiles. An integral, cylindrical electrode delivers a high-resolution, lateral resistivity referred to as ring resistivity. A bit resistivity measurement allows real-time coring and casing point selection in both conductive and resistive mud environments. Placement of the geovision tool in a BHA can be directly above the bit, near the bit, or above other components allowing broad flexibility in BHA configuration. In addition to five resistivity measurements, the geovision tool acquires azimuthal gamma ray data, torsional and lateral shock records, and temperature measurements. REAL-TIME IMAGING AND DIP CALCULATION FOR ENHANCED WELL PLACEMENT The azimuthally acquired electrode measurements are displayed as fullbore images in real time to graphically describe formation resistivity. Advanced built-in processing allows structural dip to be calculated downhole and transmitted to the surface in real time. This provides information about formation structure and other geological features, which aids precise placement of a wellbore within a reservoir. All data acquired are stored in memory and can be sent to the surface in real time or downloaded when the tool is returned to the surface. Advanced processing and interpretation can be done at the computing center by the same analyst who interprets FMI* Fullbore Formation MicroImager images.

Put wells in the best place with high-resolution multidepth geovision resistivity measurements.

Reach TD in less time with productive drilling ACQUISITION OF HIGH-RESOLUTION BOREHOLE IMAGES WHILE DRILLING SAVES RIG TIME AND REDUCES COSTS The high-resolution borehole images provided by the geovision service facilitate detailed geological and geomechanical analyses in conductive mud environments. By providing the measurements required to identify natural fractures contributing to well productivity and both the natural and induced fractures necessary to understand the orientation of formation stresses around the borehole geovision imaging delivers key information for devising successful completion strategies. Because geovision resistivity imaging can be combined with other services, the need for an additional logging run can be eliminated, resulting in rig time savings and reduced drilling costs. RESISTIVITY IMAGING-WHILEDRILLING IDENTIFIES FRACTURES IN BARNETT SHALE In an 81 2-in well drilled in the Texas Barnett shale, geovision borehole images were used to successfully identify faults, open and healed fractures, structural and stratigraphic dip magnitudes and directions, and minimum and maximum stress orientations. A drillpipe-conveyed FMI imager was also run in the horizontal section of this well for comparison. The consistency in interpretation of the FMI and geovision images provided the validation and confidence necessary to run geovision services in future Barnett shale wells. Quality images provided by the geovision service can help pinpoint reserves in the diverse shale gas plays found in the continental United States.
