NOV partners with Well ID to deliver real-time borehole imaging while drilling
  • NOV partnered with Well ID to integrate a 4D caliper borehole imaging tool into NOV’s wired drill pipe broadband network.
  • Integration shifts the tool from post-run analysis to real-time, high-definition imaging and caliper data for rigs and remote centers.
  • Collaboration began on offshore North Sea projects, targeting earlier detection of wellbore instability and lower nonproductive time.
  • Deployment allows the caliper tool to be installed mid-string in a wired drillstring, not only on the bottomhole assembly.
