Pressure Testing
Determine reservoir pressure and fluid mobility while drilling
We provide direct, real-time pore-pressure measurements that evaluate reservoir potential and mitigate potential hazards by updating the mud-weight schedule while drilling. Our PressureWave® formation tester takes fast, reliable formation pressure measurements with pumps either on or off. While testing with pumps on, data can be transmitted as fast as one pressure measurement every four seconds with 1/2-psi resolution. In memory mode, the tool records high-resolution 32‑bit pressures at five samples per second.
