Abstract W4 block of Sichuan Basin is a pioneer in shale gas exploration and development in China. But geophysical prospecting is just at its beginning and thus has not provided enough information ...

We recently introduced NovoSphere™, the industry’s only sourceless formation evaluation logging-while-drilling (LWD) service. This innovative technology provides accurate formation density and ...

LWD acquires formation evaluation and wellbore data in real time while the bit is cutting rock. Sensors housed in drill collars measure gamma ray, resistivity, density, neutron porosity, sonic, NMR, ...

While every effort is put forth before drilling begins to ensure a successful well, not every well hits hydrocarbons at a commercially productive level. Statistically, wildcat (or exploratory) wells ...
