Spiral Sensor
The MEMS Inclinometer Spiral Sensor is used to determine downhole helical deformation of installed inclinometer casing. Installed casing spiral is a function of the manufacturing process, casing coupling, and installation technique.
Features
- ‘Hot swap’ capability with Digital Inclinometer System – simply connect the probe to the reel’s connector and prepare for spiral readings on the spot
- No additional software required – Inclinalysis™ Software used for RST’s Digital Inclinometer System doubles as the method of processing spiral data
- Compact and lightweight design ensures spiral surveys in all casing orientations – unlike bulky traditional probes
- The use of an inertial sensor to measure the groove azimuth variation elimates errors due to:
– sensor offset
– wheel/groove clearance
– friction
– magnetic declination
