RADii® Cement-Bond Tool – Small-to-Medium Diameter


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


Applications

  • Cement-bond quality
  • Formation isolation
  • Cement channeling


Features and Benefits

  • Probe® high-speed digital (HD) platform version compatible with fast telemetry
  • Full surface read out (SRO) and memory logging capabilities with HD version
  • Master calibration stored in tool memory for retrieval when no free pipe is encountered in the well
  • High-temperature version for hostile environments


Tool Description

The Weatherford small-to-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 that enables identification of cement channeling while the single receiver generates the traditional cement-bond log (CBL) and a variable-density log (VDL).

The small-to-medium diameter RADii segmented cement bond tool comes in three configurations: Probe telemetry (PTX), HD, andIdentifies cement channeling and generates traditional cement-bond and variable-density logs high temperature.
