Probe, a logging and reservoir monitoring technology service, has developed a technology that uses sigma and carbon-oxygen (C/O) techniques to monitor reservoir conditions. The company is working with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) on an initiative called “Project Sigma,” which will use this new technique for water quality monitoring.
Probe, a logging and reservoir monitoring technology service, has developed a technology that uses sigma and carbon-oxygen (C/O) techniques to monitor reservoir conditions. The technology measures reservoir fluid saturation of oil, water and gas, and is capable of withstanding temperatures as high as 160°C and claims to have a service life significantly larger than other reservoir analysis tools.
