GABI™ Sensor - Gamma/At-Bit Inclination
LWD sensor provides at-bit azimuthal gamma ray and inclination measurements for improved geosteering and optimum well placement. The sensor also produces a borehole image that can be used to interpret the bed dip and determine location of an approaching bed. The GABI™ sensor can be mounted within any SperryDrill® positive displacement motor below the power section. It is a powerful tool for drilling long horizontals and staying in the pay.
GABI Sensor Applications
- Geosteering horizontal wells
- Detecting approaching bed boundaries with high gamma ray contrast
- Maintaining tight trajectory control when drilling in formations with high steering difficulty
- Drilling horizontals in gas reservoirs where extremely flat trajectories can improve production
- Determining dip direction and detecting fractures via borehole imaging for better reservoir understanding
- Stopping precisely at desired casing/coring points
