Overview
Reservoir characterization while drilling in harsh, high-temperature zones limits the run life and performance of many conventional downhole sensors and data acquisition systems. Without access to accurate, real-time logging data, the efficiency and accuracy of your drilling operation suffer.
The TRU-Litho™ HT azimuthal enhanced reservoir evaluation service from Baker Hughes offers a robust and reliable alternative to traditional evaluation tools. Designed to withstand drilling conditions up to 175°C (347ºF), TRU-Litho HT is the smarter, more efficient logging technology for the most challenging well environments.
A multi-physics tool that combines azimuthal density, neutron porosity, caliper, and drilling fluid measurements, TRU-Litho HT provides highly accurate, real-time data for more precise logging operations, superior imaging, and enhanced reservoir characterization.
Elevate logging with precise performance
TRU-Litho HT integrates technology innovations, including helium-3 neutron detectors, enhanced stand-off measurements, and drilling fluid model inputs, for greater measurement precision and more accurate formation evaluation.
Enhanced nuclear tools include built-in mud cells that provide precise, continuous, real-time environmental measurement corrections for greater data integrity and accuracy while drilling in harsh environments.
Ensure durability in demanding environments
TRU-Litho HT is designed for durable performance in a wide range of applications and the harshest downhole environments. The technology can be built from corrosion-resistant materials to withstand the most demanding drilling mud conditions.
TRU-Litho HT’s electronics are designed with improved heat tolerance, helping ensure a longer tool lifespan, consistent reliability, and faster data access at high temperatures.
With optimized materials and electronics designed for endurance, TRU-Litho HT withstands abrasive and high-vibration conditions during drilling, further extending reliability and tool lifespan.
Enhance your reservoir insights
TRU-Litho HT provides a deeper understanding of the reservoir by incorporating a range of imaging technologies as an integral part of the bottomhole assembly (BHA). These technologies, which provide density, Pe, and caliper images (up to 32 sectors), improve reservoir characterization at high temperatures. And with high-definition ultrasonic images from the TRU Image™ HT service, you gain sharper insights into hole quality and wellbore stability for more precise drilling in the reservoir’s most productive zone.
