Why Weatherford Permanent Downhole Monitoring?

Options. Rather than offer a single product for all downhole situations, we offer you a selection of fit-for-purpose solutions targeted to specific operational needs.

Reliability. Our subsurface gauges and surface control units consistently operate for periods far exceeding industry standards. A comprehensive series of environmental stress tests ensure stringent criteria are met for thermal shock, mechanical shock and thermal aging.

Experience. Our products and technology have benefited equipment operation and optimized production by limiting downtime on more than 15,000 wells. We have more than 25 years of experience with electronic downhole gauges and more than a decade of experience with optical sensing and intelligent well technologies. We have installed more than 100 optical systems to date, with a track record of innovation that includes many “world firsts” and award-winning technology and tools. We have achieved milestones of 1 million ft (305,000 m) of fiber-optic cable and 3 million ft (915,000 m) of optical fiber installed in wells. These achievements reflect more than one million cumulative in-well operating hours for our optical systems. Weatherford has installed over 2000 permanent monitoring systems with electronic gauges to date, resulting in more than fifty-six million cumulative in-well operating hours for our electronic monitoring systems.
