Logging while drilling (LWD) is a technique of conveying well logging tools into the well borehole downhole as part of the bottom hole assembly (BHA).

Logging While Drilling (LWD), also known as LWD drilling or LWD logging, is a revolutionary downhole measurement technique employed in the oil and gas industry that facilitates the acquisition of crucial formation data in real-time, directly from the wellbore as drilling progresses.

LWD tools are able to measure a suite of geological characteristics including density, porosity, resistivity, acoustic-caliper, inclination at the drill bit (NBI), magnetic resonance and formation pressure.

Optimize drilling operations with innovative LWD solutions. Evaluate subsurface formations in real-time, even in challenging wellbores. Halliburton’s logging-while-drilling solutions provide immediate information for timely adjustments during drilling, helping you enhance operations through better wellbore placement and drilling performance.

Oct 27, 2020 · LWD has many advantages as it delivers data in real time to operators…saving time and money. The most common LWD measurement is gamma ray followed by resistivity. Occasionally more exotic logging tools are required such as Sonic, Neutron Porosity, Azimuthal Density and PEF logs.

Available in two sizes (4.75” and 6.75”), the LithoFusion is a latest generation Azimuthal Density and Porosity LWD tool incorporated into a single collar. Designed for both oil-base and water-base muds, it enables geosteering and formation evaluation while …

Resistivity logging-while-drilling (LWD) tools gather data determining the balance of formations filled with water versus hydrocarbons. The resistivity log measurement aids in estimating water or oil saturation to evaluate producibility of the formation.

As the industry leader in logging-while-drilling (LWD) technology, SLB creates advanced LWD services that acquire high-quality data for accurate geosteering and more-informed formation evaluation, so you can work proactively as you drill.

The Baker Hughes LithoTrak™ logging-while-drilling (LWD) density and porosity service delivers accurate and reliable neutron porosity and formation density logs. The service also provides operators with real-time images for enhanced reservoir navigation and wellbore stability.

Logging while drilling (LWD) is an oilfield service that provides a tool within the drill string that transmits real-time formation information. The LWD tools are located near the end of the drillstring.
