BRINGING SOLUTIONS TO LIFE

Current Market Pains
Lack of Raw Data for Analysis
◦ Oilfield wants and needs data analytics to improve efficiency
◦ Surface data is generally available; Downhole data is generally not
Honour System for billing
◦ Financial collections based on usage
◦ Client claim of poor tool performance without evidence
R&D Design Validation challenges
◦ New downhole mechanical equipment field testing is expensive
◦ Lack of data to perform analysis – not efficient
No Preventative Maintenance
◦ Lack of data to predict tool or component life on downhole
equipment

INTRODUCING
RECON™️ LOGGERS
RELIABLY COLLECTING DATA IN
ULTRA-HARSH ENVIRONMENTS

DOWNHOLE DATA LOGGERS
RECON MK1
Miniature high-density
data logging tool that
captures high-
resolution data to
provide the most
accurate picture of the
drilling environment.
RECON TR1
Tiny logging tool that
captures statistical and
burst environmental
data to provide a high
quality overview of the
drilling environment.
RECON LT1
Tiny indicator that can
measure the use of
equipment for
preventative
maintenance
schedules.
RECON CB1
(in development)
Collar-based device so
it measures and
records force, torque
and pressure.

HOW RECON™️ ADDRESSES THE PAIN
Lack of Raw Data for Analysis
 Recon loggers can provide enormous amounts of high-resolution data for analysis
Honour System
 Data shows clearly when and how tools were used in the field
 There will be no back-and-forth with customers
Design Validation
 Actual high-res data for the entire test of every tool
 R&D decisions can be based on data, not assumptions of events
No Preventative Maintenance
 Environmental data and usage can be actively tracked
 Preventative maintenance schedules can be based on how used,
not how much used

A LOOK AT
THE DATA
RUN DATA SAMPLE

ALL DATA IS NOT EQUAL
Data Integrity is Paramount
◦ Proper hardware filtering and mechanical mounting is
essential to assure data is accurate
Resolution Needs Based on Use Case
◦ 1000Hz data is great, until you try to email a 100GB file
◦ 1Hz matches most surface data
◦ Frequency domain needs higher resolution
Timely Reporting is Essential
◦ Analysis two weeks late is of little use
◦ Simple PDF report on site may be enough to address issues

WHAT CAN YOU GET FROM RECON™️ DATA?
General Overview
◦ Quick high-level review between runs to gut-check the drilling
performance
Low-Resolution Comparative Studies
◦ Look at the vibrational environment to determine causes of
damaged equipment
◦ Determine if operational procedure changes are have a
desired effect
High-Resolution Analysis and Event
Identification
◦ Look for shock events that correspond with equipment failures
Environment Causal Analysis
◦ Determine if aspects of the environment are caused by
certain parameters
◦ Look at time and frequency domain
