The better you understand your reservoir, the better positioned you are to optimize its lifetime performance. Understand your reservoir rocks and fluids through accurate measurements and characterization delivered by our tools, services, and petrotechnical expertise.

Improved decision-making needs both processes and people. Fact is, fully developed data – the best possible information – and hands-on expertise are how we help you make better judgments.

To reduce the time spent evaluating pay zones and increase productive drilling rates, we bring tools with unmatched levels of performance and reliability. They’re proven technologies with high data rates and exceptional telemetry – the modern standard for open hole logging.

Then we ensure that highly trained personnel are “ready, set, go” when and where you need them. It’s process efficiency and commitment that boost your confidence, plus hands-on responsiveness you can take to the bank.

Intaj Wireline Formation Evaluation Services’ measurement of initial and current fluid contacts and the ability to predict future fluids movement can yield economic benefits through improved recovery, lower costs from fewer wells and reduced water and gas handling.

When acoustic (sound) waves are broadcast through the formation, the time taken for the waves to travel a fixed distance is measured. The velocities at which the various wave types travel are related to the properties of the formation and the fluids within. These velocities can be used for porosity estimation, elastic moduli, fracture detection, lithology determination, and well-to-well correlation.

This data can also be used in drilling applications (e.g., pore pressure determination, rock strength calculations, and borehole stability analysis) and in geophysical applications (e.g., time-to-depth, seismic correlation, synthetic seismogram, and AVO analysis).

Formation Testing and Sampling Services are often the most vital part of a reservoir characterization program.

Halliburton is particularly focused on providing world-class sampling solutions, developing industry-leading equipment such as the Armada Fluid Sampling System, Hostile Sequential Formation Tester (HSFT-II), and Reservoir Description Tool (RDTTM tester), which incorporates the Oval Pad, Oval Focused Pad, Dual-Port Straddle Packer, and ICE Core Fluid Analysis Service, into the most complete formation testing system available today.

Formation testing tools are often used to address these challenges:

ü  Determine formation pressures

ü  Establish pressure gradients

ü  Identify reservoir fluid type

ü  Locate fluid contacts

ü  Calculate formation fluid mobility

ü  Collect representative reservoir fluid samples

ü  Analyze reservoir fluids in situ

ü  Describe the reservoir architecture
