Schlumberger reported the introduction of the NeoScope* sourceless logging-while-drilling formation evaluation service based on pulsed neutron generator technology that eliminates the need for chemical sources. Unique NeoScope technology provides real-time measurements close to the bit to guide interpretation and decision making in all drilling environments.

“With its compact design and neutron-on-demand technology, this service saves rig time, reduces risks and provides a comprehensive suite of petrophysical measurements,” said Steve Kaufmann, president, Schlumberger Drilling & Measurements. “With more than 200 jobs conducted in the field test phase for customers in over 30 countries, the NeoScope service has demonstrated its ability to provide high quality data while lowering operational and technical risk.”
