Our client needed help in developing a method for triggering a downhole tool without the use of conventional methods that were costly and risky. This technology would be used on a wide variety of products and would create a competitive advantage as it lowered the total cost of ownership.
Downhole Trigger
How to communicate 10,000ft underground
FinishLine Expertise
- Electromagnetic Physic/Downhole Communications
Project Description
The Challenge
How to selectively activate downhole equipment without the use of e-lines or cables.
Naturally, the new technology had to withstand the extreme temperature, pressure, shock and vibration of the downhole environment.
The Process
- Assemble a world class team of experts in various fields.
- Develop concepts.
- Evaluate and test these concepts.
- Design, manufacture and field test pre-production prototypes.
The Solution
Near field wireless dart that would trigger the selective deployment of a downhole tool as it was pumped down the well.
The Results
Because the technology reduced the total cost of ownership for a wide range of existing products, gross margin for the company grew at substantial rates.
