MSIL Multistring Isolation Logging Tool


Evaluates the isolation behind casing without the need to remove production tubing from the well


Applications

  • Through-tubing cement evaluation
  • Tubing-anomaly identification


Features and Benefits

  • Quantify zonal isolation behind casing without removing the production tubing from the well.
  • Plan plug and abandonment (P&A) operations on a platform before deploying a rig.
  • Eliminate rig standby costs by logging in memory mode on slickline.
  • Identify tubing anomalies through frequency analysis while simultaneously logging casing isolation.


Tool Description

The Weatherford MSIL cased-hole multistring isolation logging tool evaluates the isolation behind casing without removing production tubing from the well.
