CCL
▪ CCL could help in depth matching if particular completion elements can be identified
▪ Perforations may sometimes
Caliper
▪ Caliper diameter is measured thanks to 2 perpendicular arms
▪ Diameter is mandatory to compute flow rate
▪ Even with an accurate completion sketch, caliper data has to be examined
▪ Scales could be observed thanks to the caliper
Centralisers
▪ To keep the tool in the middle of the wellbore is important to get a representative data (downhole
recirculation)
In line Flowmeters
▪ small spinner
▪ good for high flowrates
▪ Mainly used as backup spinner
Petal Basket
▪ stationary measurement
▪ good for low flowrates
▪ May affect flow regime

Diaphragm
(friction, deviation)
Density
Needs:
- correction for pipe friction
- correction for deviation
Not affected by well bore deviation Advantages More stable than pressure gauge derivative
Not affected by friction
Advantages Big error in fluid density estimation
Give instantaneous fluid density
Center tool –flow regime problem
Close 100% success ratio
Drawbacks Affected by wellbore deviation
Use nuclear source (Am-241)
Affected by wellbore friction
Drawbacks Center tool – problem with flow regime
Sensitive to ‘jetting effect’
Fluid circulation – design problem
Quite ‘frequently’ failure – silicon oil problem
The density measurement give an instant picture of the fluids in the well
▪ As quicklook, do not interpret systematicaly density increase as a water
source (especially for gradio-manometer tool)
The slowest pass is best, as there are less effects on the curve.
So not possible with memory PLT and never done with E-line jobs (no witnessing)
0.5
Yw = 0.4
The tool goes into
“conductive” mode when
the water becomes the
dominant phase

6000 cps 3000
This tool needs calibration (surface check, and downhole in-situ calibration)
In practice they become unreliable if the water cut is above 30% - 40%
▪ Schlumberger : 4 probes
▪ Multi Resistivity (flowview)
▪ Optical probes (GHOST)
The signal from the FloView probe lies between two baselines,
the continuous water-phase response and the continuous
hydrocarbon-phase response.
