Cutting-Edge Drilling Solutions for Energy Exploration
Our Drilling Services offer comprehensive solutions to support efficient and accurate energy exploration.
From reservoir and source rock evaluations to transmission services, we ensure that every aspect of your drilling operation is optimized for success. With cutting-edge technologies and a team of experts, we provide reliable services that help unlock the full potential of your energy resources.
Our equipment may be tailored, with wide ranging options available to meet all customer and statutory requirements. Our cabins allow a modular approach with sensors and analytical equipment available for all forms of formation evaluation. This ability to add or remove specialist techniques allows us to provide high quality, relevant solutions through all phases of a drilling campaign, from exploration, appraisal and development through to workovers and abandonment. GEOLOG has provided Surface Logging in all working environments.
In addition to providing data, our analysts and interpreters are available to assist when required, ensuring reservoir characterization is possible in all situations.
Benefits
- Highly trained, competent field personnel
- Dedicated technical support & management
- Global presence
- Wide range of easily implemented services available
Challenges & Solutions
Surface Logging performs a variety of functions in modern drilling operations, including monitoring for safety awareness, formation evaluation through cuttings and gas analysis and drilling performance. By ensuring the quality of the basic components, these requirements are not compromised. The latest technologies are available, including FID gas detection, digital photo-microscopy, sonic and radar sensors as examples.
Applications
Surface Logging has applications in conventional and numerous unconventional operations, including coal seam gas, geothermal and shale oil/gas. GEOLOG brings particular value when the wells being drilled have a variety of targets and analytical requirements, which may require the level of interpretation to be modified through a campaign. Our ability to implement more complex services when required provides our customers with the flexibility and knowledge that they can achieve their formation evaluation goals.
GEOLOG’s Drilling Solutions integrate a wide range of features with the singular aim of optimising well construction and delivery. The commitment to safety, excellence, and continual improvement delivered through all of our Drilling Solutions is driven by this core goal, with consistently exceptional results delivered from our high accuracy Surface Logging.
Many of GEOLOG’s Drilling Solutions can be offered stand-alone, run independently of Geolog Surface Logging.
Our history of providing high quality, tailored services and bespoke-engineered solutions ensures reliable delivery of results.
