Equipment
The Maxwell Family
All the tools in the family share common components allowing for an easy upgrade from one tool type to another. A standard pressure housing fits all tools and the surface equipment can be used for either type of telemetry. All the tools are designed to be wireline retrievable, with the exception of TurboSurvey.MWD Tool Family - PDF
AutoSurvey
This tool is particularly designed for use in vertical drilling, to provides Survey data at each drill pipe connection. It may also be used for simple directional wells or for correction runs. The tool is uniquely short and incorporates the proven Patented Maxwell positive Pulser. The system is extremely easy to use and has been designed to be operated by the rig crew.Positive Pulse - Micro MWD - PDF
Nova
This tool offers full MWD with the option to add Gamma, all in a remarkably small package. The retrievable probe assembly may be used in a wide variety of collar sizes, from 2.3/4” up to 8” outside diameter.Positive Pulse MWD - PDF
IMP
This tiny tool offers an extremely compact solution for high speed short duration drilling applications, such as slant drilling rigs. It provides extreme portability for efficient operation in the field. This tool uses the same Patented gap-sub technology as employed by its ‘big brother’, the dEMon tool.Electromagnetic Micro MWD - PDF
dEMon
This tool is the EM counterpart to the Nova system, offering high-speed full MWD with options for Gamma, Vibration and Pressure measurement. This makes it the ideal tool for under-balanced drilling applications. Again the tool is compact and employs the Patented Maxwell gap-sub technology.Electromagnetic MWD - PDF
TurboSurvey
This mud-pulse tool offers a remarkably short full MWD tool that needs no batteries. The package is possibly the shortest ever full MWD tool-string to provide turbine power affording long duration runs in hole. This tool is also available in a form suitable for mining applications.Positive Pulse - Turbine Powered Micro MWD - PDF
