corrosion logging

Corrosion control in the oil industry is a matter of economics. Up to 1% of the over-all operating costs could be saved through corrosion management. Corrosion management involves casing inspection and periodic monitoring, corrosion rate prediction and catholic protection evaluation. Up to one third or this could be saved through a planning scheme involving corrosion detection, evaluation and management in downhole casings. Today's corrosion wireline logging tools offer a technique to predict and detect potentially disastrous corrosion problems. Current wireline measurements can predict, detect and delineate corrosion in the form of metal loss, holes, pits, and mechanical deformation. Furthermore, external problems can be distinguished from internal ones.

Downhole corrosion problems are many and varied, requiring many techniques for their detection and monitoring. Probe provide a combination of measurements—electrical and mechanical—so you can make the right choice to get the answers you need:

- Inside diameter
- Casing thickness
- Scale detection
- Pipe sections
- Hole detection
- Metal loss indicators
- Mechanical wear
- Corrosion rate

Applications:

• Producing wells corrosion detection

• Injector wells corrosion detection

• Casing integrity measurement before and after Frac job

• Casing integrity measurement prior to sidetrack operation

• Drilling induced “Casing Wear” evaluation

Features and benefit:

• System approach to corrosion evaluation

• High resolution integrity measurement

• Real Time and Memory mode option

• Compatible with Warrior™ Acquisition system
