Borehole Imaging

High resolution images of the borehole can be used to identify a variety of geological attributes such as structural dip, faults and fractures. These images can also provide insight into the condition of the borehole, stress and rock mechanics around the borehole and assist in porosity determination.

Halliburton provides a suite of solutions for operation in water-based or oil-based muds.

ADR™ Azimuthal Deep Resistivity Sensor
LWD sensor provides deep reading (up to 18 feet into the formation), directional and high-resolution images that give early warning of approaching bed boundaries before the target zone is exited . Also provides a traditional multi-frequency compensated resistivity sensor. This one tool provides over 2,000 unique measurements for both precise wellbore placement and more accurate petrophysical analysis.
AFR™ Azimuthal Focused Resistivity Sensor
LWD sensor produces high resolution resistivity images for identifying dip, fractures and borehole breakout. Also provides an omni-directional, laterolog-type resistivity data, electrical images of the formation, and at-bit resistivity (ABR) measurement.
Electrical Micro Imaging (EMI™) Log Service
Wireline service produces in real time, core-like electrical micro-conductivity images of the formation sequence encountered in the wellbore.
GABI™ Sensor - Gamma/At-Bit Inclination
LWD sensor provides at-bit azimuthal gamma ray and inclination measurements for improved geosteering and optimum well placement.
M5™ Integrated LWD Service
Integrated LWD service provides formation evaluation answers from resistivity and azimuthal gamma ray sensors and drilling optimization answers from vibration and pressure sensors.
Oil Based Mud Imaging (OMRI™) Log Service
Wireline imaging service obtains 6 resistivity measurements per pad at a 1” resolution. Sensor performs in all mud systems.
Six Arm Dipmeter (SEDSM) Service
Wireline service uses six arms to provide six formation micro-resistivity measurements, tool orientation data, and six caliper curves. This data is then correlated to identify bedding and other features in the formation.
Water Based Mud Imaging (XRMI™) Log Service
Wireline imaging service designed to obtain images when using water based muds even in high Rt:Rm environments.
