Coring Services

As the leader in coring technology, ReedHycalog^® Coring Services provides innovative coring solutions for complex well designs and challenging formations, delivering accurate reservoir data.

Today’s Coring Challenges

• Operational Concerns
  Multiple drill-string trips
  Safety issues
  Time & cost increase
  Slow rate of penetration (ROP)
• Reservoir Data Quality Problems
  Under-gauged core
  Fluid invasion
  Poor core recovery

ReedHycalog Coring Solutions

Corion Express^® Wireline Coring

• Maximizes coring efficiency
  Provides coring, drilling, and logging applications on-demand without the need to trip
  Mitigates formation wash-outs/sloughing/cave-ins caused by excessive swab and surge
• Delivers superior core quality required for basic and advanced reservoir analysis
• Assisted operators in over 1,000 wells

Oriented Coring
Provides quality core data giving a better understanding of reservoir properties.
Oriented cores can be obtained with

• Corion Express wireline system, unique to the industry
• Our conventional coring systems.

Conventional Coring
Utilizes the latest advances in core bit and core catcher technology

• Maximizes ROP, core recovery and core quality

Sponge Coring

• Premier core quality for advanced reservoir analysis such as:
  Oil saturation
  Permeability
  Wettability
• Facilitates precise location of perforating and fracturing for optimized well bore stimulation and enhanced production.

Thermostable Cutter Technology
TReX^® and Raptor™ thermostable cutter technology:

• Core with Fixed Cutter bits in formations that were historically not PDC drillable
• Improve rate of penetration and core quality
