Delivery of directional digital survey data begins

This software, data, and enterprise services provider has begun delivering directional digital survey data to licensed clients in the exploration and production sector.

The South Louisiana parishes and the counties of Texas Railroad Commission Districts 2, 3, and 4 are the first geographic areas available for initial delivery of survey information on recent and historically drilled wells.

Directional surveys are used to spatially locate the downhole path of oil and gas wells. State-of-the-art, 3D well path location allows companies involved in exploration and production to know precisely where well controls are located. The directional survey data can be used in all mapping, GIS, and interpretation applications.

The firm says E&P groups involved in 3D seismic acquisition and interpretation operations or drilling that includes deviated or horizontal wells and companies performing reservoir characterization and modeling studies may find the data helpful. Additionally, those in land and lease management and regulatory compliance may find directional digital survey data helpful in their respective job functions.

The company delivers formatted data easily adapted to E&P mapping, interpretation, and GIS applications.

New point level switches

New point level switches have been added to this company’s Rosemount level instrumentation products. The new 2110 and 2120 level switches are based on a vibrating short fork technology, which is suited for most liquid applications.

The switches are virtually unaffected by flow, turbulence, bubbles, foam, vibration, or product variations. The fast drip fork design means that any remaining liquid is drawn away from the fork tips, allowing for quicker and more reliable detection, especially in high density liquids. The 2110 and 2120 are suited in uses previously using float switches, conductive, capacitive, and optical sensors. They perform in many applications that are unsuitable for other switches due to harsh process conditions. Both switches operate in temperatures up to 302° F. (150° C.) and pressures up to 1,450 psig (100 barg).
