Extended-Reach
Caliper Log
Our services team uses an extended-
reach caliper that is similar to the 60-arm
multichannel caliper, but with a much
larger measurement range up to 16 in.
Data from each of the 60 arms is monitored
and recorded independently. The tool
contains an inclinometer to denote the
wellbore high side and well deviation.
It is also capable of recording wellbore
temperature simultaneously with the
caliper measurements.
This tool can also provide statistical joint
analysis software and 3D imaging software.
Applications
The extended-reach caliper log can locate
and identify casing drilling wear—as well as
quantify scale build-up and corrosions.
It can also be used to:
• Locateholes,splits,restrictionsor
anomalies
• Identifydownholehardwareand
suspected casing damage
CASING AND BOREHOLE INTEGRITY PIPE RECOVERY
Stuck-Pipe
Log (SPL)
GE’s service teams use the stuck-pipe log
to create a complete record of all stuck
intervals and possible trouble areas in a
string of stuck pipe. The system utilizes an
acoustic device that sets up a vibration.
In stuck intervals, the amplitude of the
vibration—as measured by a receiver—
decreases in proportion to the severity
of the stuck condition. The sonic section
consists of a transmitter and receiver
section. The transmitter section emits
rapid pulses, which travel through the
well fluid and pipe before arriving at the
receiver. The 1.6875-in (42.9-mm) OD
downhole assembly is run on a single-
conductor electric line.
The logging instrument is calibrated in
known free pipe—typically near the bottom
of the surface pipe or last casing string.
After the logging run, a signal-attenuation
scale is applied to the log. This scale is
expressed in percentages and it is designed
to accurately indicate the severity of stuck-
pipe conditions at each interval.
Applications
This tool can often evaluate stuck wash
pipe, casing, tubing and liners; assist in
decisions to sidetrack or abandon; and also
assist in evaluating fishing operations in
real time
Features and benefits
The stuck pipe log provides a complete
record of all stuck intervals and areas
of possible restrictions. Both downhole
tools and surface instruments incorporate
solid-state electronics to deliver reliable
performance. Other features include:
• Abilitytoidentifybridgesbelowstuck
points—where freepoint indicator tools
are not useful
• Abilitytobecombinedwithgamma
ray tool or neutron tool
Free-Point
Indicators (FPI)
Our services specialists utilize a wide
array of freepoint indicator (FPI) tools for
pipe recovery applications—each having
different types of anchoring systems to fit
the needs of the pipe recovery operation.
All of our FPI tools share the same time-
tested sensor section, which measures
both stretch and torque and can read both
left-hand and right-hand torque.
A key benefit of this offering is digital
freepoint presentation. This provides a
digital presentation for all of the freepoint
services. A table shows depth, time, weight
pulled and the type of tension put on the
pipe-as well as the readings given by the
FPI tool. Graphics also show both torque
and stretch readings, as well as a wellbore
sketch can be created.
