Tracking and Ranging Products & Services for Directional Drillers
Industry-leading experience and technologies, including Active AC Magnetic Ranging and Passive Magnetic Ranging.
As the Well Proximity Experts, we have more experience and have helped drill more relief wells than any other company in the industry. We provide a breadth of both technology and experience that has grown from the scientific principles that the company was founded on more than three decades ago.
With a variety of techniques at hand, including both Active AC Magnetic Ranging (WellSpot and WellSpot at Bit) and Passive Magnetic Ranging (PMR), we can meet any relief well need. When your platform, reservoir, or field is at risk, don't leave it to chance - call the Well Proximity Experts.
Available technologies for relief well drilling include:
To determine which of our technologies is appropriate for the specific circumstances of a given project. we use some general guidelines during the planning stage. Active AC Magnetic Ranging is the technology that Vector Magnetics was founded upon, and it remains our primary detection method today. The original WellSpot and Gradient wireline tools have been refined into the WellSpot At Bit (WSAB) tools, which allow for at-bit measurement of distance and direction to the target tubular, without the need to trip drill-pipe out of the hole. Both open-hole and WellSpot at Bit systems are still in use today, and allow for flexibility while executing the relief well plan.
