Case Study
RCX Sentinel and FASTrak services captured high purity samples in deepwater
RCX Sentinel and FASTrak services captured high purity samples in deepwater Challenges • Deepwater GoM development well • Operator needed complete LWD and wireline solution for testing and sampling • Low permeability • Laminated sand/shale sequences Results • Achieved significant rig time savings • Reduced fluid to wellbore • FASTrak service obtained three samples with less than 5% contamination • RCX Sentinel service cleanup was completed in 60 minutes • RCX Sentinel service obtained samples with contaminations of less than 2% An operator in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) was drilling a development well consisting of oil-bearing reservoirs varying from volatile to heavy oil. The operator needed to obtain formation pressures and samples while drilling. Formation fluid sampl
