Electro-Magnetic Defectoscope-Thickness Gaugefor Multi-String Operations

The equipment was development by AO NPP VNIIGIS in cooperation with AO NPF GITAS

SCOPE OF APPLICATION

Casing string and tubing integrity monitoring in killed and non-killed oil and gas wells of multi-string structure

FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES

In newly drilled wells MID-4 tool is used for monitoring:   

  • well design up to five casing barriers evaluation   
  • compliance with the project of casing string set point with different diameters and wall thickness       
  • liner setting interval
  • casing integrity and degree of wear during tool operation

In operating wells the MID-4 tool makes it possible to determine:

  • perforation intervals
  • location of through defects
  • parting of casing in four-string structure
  • actual installation intervals of sealing patches 
  • actual installation depth of casing packers, etc     
  • well design up to five casing strings
  • corrosion intervals and degree of casing string wear    
  • intervals of casing defects for repair
  • thickness of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th columns

The tool includes 3 probes of defectoscope-thickness gauge, highly sensitive temperature sensor, gamma-ray and pressure sensors.
