A simple solution for complex conditions

The PMR Passive magnetic ranging service detects the target wellbore relative to the drilling assembly by measuring the magnitude of the magnetic field from the remnant magnetism in the casing string. The PMR service does not require access to the target well, is 100% remote, and can be applied to:

  • Anti-collision
  • Extend distances between active magnetic ranging runs
  • Ranging in applications not feasible for active ranging technologies
  • Steering around a fish

PMR uses most MWD service providers' raw survey measurements.

The PMR service can be run with any standard measurement while drilling (MWD) system, or with the GuideStar™ definitive survey measurement service to ensure the drilling does not stop. PMR is typically done remotely. There are no special requirements for the MWD system except for maintaining proper non-magnetic spacing within the drilling BHA.

 

Benefits

  • Save time by running passive and active magnetic ranging on a single wireline run
  • Lower the cost of implementation
  • Mitigate uncertainty from compounding measurement-while-drilling (MWD) errors
  • When run with the GuideStar™ service:
    • Enhance the resolution of MWD surveys
    • Increase precision of magnetic pole detection

Features

  • Run in conjunction with active magnetic ranging solutions
  • Can run with the WellSpot™ service, MWD tools, or wireline
  • Perform 100% of analysis remotely
