Hotwell - Well Logging Equipment

The petroleum industry worldwide relies on Hotwell wireline logging services, tools and equipment. Hotwell has developed a variety of innovative well logging systems with only the best components, and a simple but effective design. We insist on rigorous testing of every product we manufacture, but never sacrifice performance. At Hotwell, we pride ourselves on responding effectively to our end users' needs, requests and suggestions.

Logging systems for open hole wells

The Hotwell open hole product line is based on the ACE 5000 (advanced creative express platform) that integrates instruments used in the regular open hole well logging services: electrical survey, dual laterolog, dual induction focused log, compensated acoustic log, high resolution acoustic log, microspherical focused log, four-arm calliper log, gamma log, spectral gamma log, compensated neutron log, compensated density log, spectral-density log, continuous deviation and orientation log, and high resolution six-arm DIP meter. The ACE 5000 platform utilises the latest technology to reduce tools string length, and achieve an overall improvement of the stratum resolution and the time efficiency of well logging.

Logging equipment for cased hole wells

Casing collar locator tools, gamma ray and spectral gamma ray tools, tracer ejector tools, dual neutron tools, temperature and pressure tools, pressure-temperature tools, bond tools (cement bond log and radial incremented bond log), audio tracer tools, free point tools, casing and tubing inspection tools (multi-finger caliper log and pipe inspection system) are some of Hotwell’s cased hole instruments widely used in the hydrocarbons industry. They are made in 1in, 1-3/8in and 1-11/16in diameters, with temperature and pressure ratings up to 250°C (432°F) and 138MPa (20,000psi) respectively.

Hotwell’s Pulsed Neutron Neutron™ (PNN) system is a thermal decay type tool that detects thermal neutrons. The improved technology, with unique processing, imaging and quantitative hydrocarbon saturation interpretation, enables usage of this logging tool in lower salinity and lower porosity formations. PNN is compatible with the Warrior data acquisition system and with HWProc™ - Hotwell interpretation software.

The Activation Flow Logging Tool™ is an efficient, environmentally friendly and reasonably priced fluid velocity measuring well logging tool compatible with the Warrior data acquisition system and with HWFlow™ - Hotwell interpretation software.

Production logging equipment

All of the production logging tools (PLT) for the oil industry are available in the form of a simultaneous PLT string or separate analogue sensors. Hotwell manufactures production logging systems in the 1in, 1-3/8in and 1-11/16in diameters. Tools can be rated from standard 175°C (350°F) to 230+°C (450+°F) hot hole strings. SIPLOS™ (simultaneous production logging system) is the most advanced of Hotwell’s PLT tools. This digital tool is compatible with the Warrior data acquisition system and HWFlow - Hotwell interpretation software.

Services

As a global wireline service company, Hotwell offers well logging services both open hole and cased hole. In both cases we possess experienced professionals, advanced logging interpretation and expert know-how to meet each customer’s individual needs.

Open hole measurements are based upon the ACE 5000 platform. Cased hole well logging enables better completion and production processes during operations since our services line includes perforating, cement evaluation logging, production logging, casing and tubing inspection, reservoir monitoring by PNN, setting services and pipe recovery. All the data processing, interpretation and petrophysical services, with worldwide service coverage, are supported by our log analysis centre, located in Klingenbach, Austria.

When special services are required, we utilise sub-contractors that follow our logging standard as agreed with our particular clients. By cooperating with our partner company, NPS International, we can expand our line of products and services to fulfil all of your needs required at the oil field.
