Gyrodata: Solid-State Gyro While Drilling

A Revolution in Performance

To respond to the industry’s demand for more accurate wellbore placement, Gyrodata launched a new solid-state gyro-while-drilling (GWD) system powered by our SPEAR^TMtechnology. This ground-breaking technology powers our Quest^TM GWD and Quest^TM Lite GWD systems.

Quest GWD enables operators to mitigate the costly risk of a collision throughout complex drilling projects. This is achieved by delivering high-quality, accurate measurements that help operators avoid drilling into existing adjacent wells. The Quest GWD tool also substantially reduces the ellipses of uncertainty in real-time, up to 41%, which improves wellbore placement as a result of greater precision and accuracy. This improved performance helps operators avoid lease lines, mitigates frac hits, and enhances ability to hit hydrocarbon-rich target zones.

Quest Lite GWD is designed for use in lower angle (up to 40 degree inclination) hole sections of a well. Quest Lite GWD is faster, more efficient, reliable and robust compared to any competing spinning mass GWD system. Quest Lite GWD only takes 16 seconds to collect a survey – 20 times faster than competing gyroMWD systems.
