GeoVista

Caliper Probes
2-Arm, 3-Arm and 4-Arm Calipers
APPLICATIONS
• Borehole Mechanics and integrity
• Borehole Diameter
• Volume and cement calcula$ons
• Lithology Iden$fica$on
• Helps Interpreta$on of wireline logs
• Analysis of fractures, cavings, breaks
and borehole dimensions
The Geovista range of borehole caliper probes measures a con$nu-
ous log of the borehole diameter, or radii, using arms that are me-
chanically coupled to the borehole wall.
OVERVIEW
The GeoVista calipers can be used on their own, or in combina$on with other
GeoVista sondes. In addi$on to the tradi$onal 3-arms caliper, a two arms caliper
is available. This can be coupled with a second caliper sonde to provide a slim
Four-Arm caliper with independent arms. Alterna$vely a single Four-Arm caliper
with independent arms is available for larger boreholes.

The addi$on of a Geovista Ver$cality sonde would yield a Borehole Geometry

Log.
