Customizable Levels of Service
“In my 20+ years of working on drilling rigs, I have never encountered a mud-logging service with this level of knowledge, communication and professionalism. They are a true asset to operations.”
Flex Logging
Flex Logging is our response to the prevalence of multi-well pads drilled with strong offset control.
We deploy remotely addressable infrared gas detection (Total Gas / C1-C5 / H2S) on as many rigs as you request. A centralized tech is on call 24/7 to monitor and maintain these remote systems.
Our logging crews move from rig to rig, at your direction, providing a detailed look at the sections you and your team deem important. Typically this includes a single surface or intermediate section, followed by some or all of the planned curve and lateral sections on the pad.
This operational posture allows maximum flexibility for the operations geology team, and typically reduces mudlogging costs while providing a higher volume of accurate data.
Additionally, interpretive mudlogs can be produced for the sections completed without a logging crew. By blending gas data, gamma, RoP, EDR data, and offset logs, we can produce an accurate record of drilling operations, formation tops, geological hazards and more. This additional capability may prove useful in the sale or acquisition of leases in the future. Interpretive logs also tend to be a quick and easy to correlate record of events when planning future wells or while steering your current project.
Geo-steering Integration & Directional Assistance
A bolt on service to our Traditional Mud Logging, Blackstone’s direct integration into the directional and steering teams is ideal for Operations Geologists who steer their own wells or Executives seeking to contract out all geology operations.
Blackstone’s software suite, experience, and training allows us to communicate micro level geo-steering data to directional personnel, enhancing their effectiveness, reducing response times, and increasing target zone exposure.
During daily briefings, you provide directives and we ensure everyone on site is on the same page. If trends break, mechanical issues occur, or correlation is lost, we immediately contact you to ensure quick resolution.
The majority of our professional recommendations originate from this level of service.
