Wireline Openhole Stress Measurement Service. Phase 0 Final Report, March-August,1995

摘要

A stress measurement service offered on a wireline in openhole is proposed. Theuse of wireline reduces the cost of the service, while the use in openhole allows access to the rock above, below and in the reservoir. A market survey was conducted to measure industry interest in the service concept, and a study was made of the behavior of the tool hardware. In particular, the rate at which fluid leaks from the borehole into the rock through the mudcake, the stress induced in the rock by the tool, and the influence of the tool on the pressure that the tool measures were studied. The market survey indicated widespread industry interest.
