Tuning-Fork Density Tool


Provides industry-standard fluid-density measurement based on vibrating-fork technology


Applications

  • Fluid identification
  • Fluid holdup


Features and Benefits

  • Combinable with all high-speed digital (HD) telemetry tools for comprehensive evaluation
  • Tuning-fork technology for nonradioactive fluid density determination
  • Compact, versatile, and robust
  • Unaffected by deviation


Tool Description

The Weatherford tuning-fork density tool is an HD, nonradioactive fluid identification tool that is not affected by well inclination. It provides an industry-standard fluid-density measurement based on vibrating-fork technology.

Optimized for either pure gas or oil-water environments, it can also function as a useful free-gas indicator.
