Accomplishments

  

June, 2018 - Paisano Labs verifies PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool communication with recently updated Tolteq I-Series iMCU firmware using Generic Variables, providing I-Series users with an upgrade path to Resistivity LWD.

May, 2018 - Polaris Guidance Systems adds support for PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool memory formats.  Polaris Guidance customers can now process PR2 memory files at the end of the job to provide high resolution Resistivity LWD logs and LAS output files to end users.

March, 2018 - Paisano Labs completes Depth of Investigation studies for PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool. Data is available in easy to understand charts that show how DOI varies with antenna spacing, measurement type & frequency, and formation resistivity.

January, 2018 - Paisano Labs completes delivery of 4.75" and 6.75" PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tools to customer for use with KeyDrill MWD systems.

December, 2017 - Paisano Labs completes Borehole Correction Charts for PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool.  Charts show that under most conditions no additional Borehole Corrections are required and help customers identify conditions where borehole may cause errors in resistivity measurements.  

November, 2017
 - Paisano Labs completes delivery of 40 GRe Enhanced Gamma Ray probes to customer for use with Tensor-compatible MWD systems.  The GRe provides true 175C Gamma LWD capability. 
 

September, 2017
 - DigiDrill 
 
adds support to its Correlator application for PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool memory formats.  DigiDrill customers can now process PR2 memory files at the end of the job to provide high resolution Resistivity LWD logs and LAS output files to end users. 

June, 2016 - Paisano Labs begins lab testing of next-gen 8-position rotary ("Bluestar") and Kintec adapters for connecting legacy MWD / Gamma components above and below the PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool.

May, 2016 - Paisano Labs completes lab testing of PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool with XXT Directional Module and DrillTek Twin EM Telemetry. Eight PR2 sensor measurements (resistivity, pressure, shock) plus gamma and toolface updates every 17 seconds!

April, 2016 - Paisano Labs completes detailed design of 8.25" PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool. The tool is available in both conventional 1200gpm flow rate and high-flow 1800gpm version for use with larger diameter bits and motors.

March, 2016 - Paisano Labs delivers first 6.75" PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool for use with customer's Tensor-compatible MWD.

February, 2016 - Paisano Labs completes lab testing to 175 deg. C of first 6.75" PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool.

December, 2015 - Paisano Labs delivers two 4.75" PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tools to customer in China for use w/ customer's proprietary and XXT Tensor-compatible MWD systems.  

Q3 2015 - Paisano Labs completes lab testing of optional 3-axis shock measurements for PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool. Shock data is now available from the PR2 in real time or from PR2 memory data.

Q3 2015 - Paisano Labs completes successful field test of 4.75" PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool with customer's proprietary MWD / Gamma system. PR2 was run with gamma & bottom mount pulser below and directio
nal module and batteries above.

Q2 2015
 - Paisano Labs completes lab testing of PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tool with GE Tensor and Benchtree legacy MWD directional modules.  Communications via generic variables of up to 8 measurements from the PR2 is confirmed

Q3 2014
 - Paisano Labs delivers two 4.75" PR2 Propagation Resistivity Tools for use with customer's proprietary MWD / Gamma system.  Customer has not reported any lost time failures to date.  

Q1 2014 - Paisano Labs delivers two Dual Packer Module prototypes to Chinese National Petroleum Company (CNPC) for use with their Formation Dynamics Tester (FDT) wireline tool.
