RADii® Cement-Bond Tool - Medium Diameter


Identifies cement channeling and generates traditional cement bond log and variable-density log



Applications

  • Cement-bond quality
  • Formation isolation
  • Cement channeling


Features and Benefits

  • Fully Probe® high-speed digital (HD) platform compatible
  • Full SRO and memory capability
  • Storable master calibration in tool memory for retrieval when no free pipe is encountered in the well
  • High-temperature (HT) version for hostile environments


Tool Description

The Weatherford medium diameter RADii segmented cement-bond tool uses a single ceramic transmitter, an eight-segment receiver at 3 ft, and a single receiver at 5-ft spacing. The segmented receiver generates a cement map enabling cement-channeling identification while the single receiver generates the traditional cement-bond log (CBL) and a variable-density log (VDL).

The medium-diameter RADii segmented cement-bond tool comes in three configurations: standard, with temperature sub, and HD.
