HOUSTON — EV, a provider of downhole visual analytics, has
released its new ClearVision technology, which the company says is the world’s
only integrated array video and phased array ultrasound scanning tool.
ClearVision is designed to combine 360-degree video and
phased array ultrasound technologies to offer advanced 4D evaluation system for
wellbore applications. By marrying these technologies, ClearVision enables
operators to see and measure 100% of perforations, including small dimension
perforations and those plugged with sand. This accuracy delivers unambiguous
information regarding perforation erosion and proppant placement trends, which
the company says empowers engineers to improve frac designs for better well
performance and increased hydrocarbon production.
EV says, "ClearVision’s video array offers superior
axial and circumferential measurement accuracy as well as the radial geometry
and pipe thickness measurements of its ultrasound scanner, delivering
comprehensive insights regarding erosion trends and proppant placement."
ClearVision is designed to capture the most complete perforation evaluation
dataset with accuracy in all well conditions. This provides the most complete,
accurate and reliable dataset that enables operators to completely trust their
data to correctly identify erosion variability trends that would otherwise be
unobtainable, the company said.
The improved reservoir stimulation enabled by ClearVision is
field proven in the Permian Basin to deliver an additional $1.4 million of
production revenue per well in one year alone, and operational cost savings of
over $350,000 per well.
EV told Offshore the new technology also has offshore
applications and that ClearVision can be used to inspect safety valves, sand
screens and other completion components.
ClearVision’s data and analytical results are delivered via
a custom-built, cloud-based data interpretation and visualization system called
the EV Web Portal, which provides simultaneous global access to real-time
results. The web portal was released March 23.
