MAGNETIC THICKNESS DETECTOR (MTD)

The Magnetic Thickness Detector (MTD) is a 1-11/16 in O.D electromagnetic corrosion measuring instrument
primarily run through tubing with the unique ability to simultaneously inspect tubing and the casings behind it.

Cased Hole
The integrity of the casing string can be evaluated with neither the requirement for costly workover rig, nor the
time-consuming removal of the tubing completion.

GOWell’s next generation MTD tool is capable of evaluating quantitative thickness

measurements up to three concentric pipes. The state-of-the-art instrument combines a
high power transmitter, improved signal-to-noise (SNR) electronics and fully configurable
acquisition. This flexible approach allows a wide range of evaluations under different

conditions and conveyance systems.
(Ø 43 mm)
A simple engineer selection of the functional mode allows features such as:
• Log up to 18-5/8” casing
• Simple mode selection
• Fast logging of single strings

The tool samples the pulsed eddy current transient decay response every 1ms for a
duration controlled by the logging mode. This data can be transmitted real-time to
surface or stored downhole during memory logging as the MTD tool is fully PegasusStar

(1.125 m)
When run with our PegasusStar platform, the MTD is fully combinable with Multi-Finger
calipers (MFC), Gamma-Ray/Temperature/CCL (GTC) and our Digital Radial Bond Tool (RBL).
The combination provides a comprehensive evaluation of the well integrity, providing
accurate thickness information for multiple pipe strings as well as the cement bond quality.

MAGNETIC THICKNESS DETECTOR (MTD)

The MTD tool has two sets of sensors, one short (“C”) and one long (“A”), which deliver high-energy electromagnetic
pulses into the pipes surrounding the tool. Based on the Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC) physics principles, the tool records
the composite decay of the eddy current signals that are used to evaluate the pipe conditions.

The long sensor records up to 60 channels spanning the decay time from 1ms to 300ms. This captures the fast decay of
alloy pipes to the far-field signals of large casings. The short sensor has a smaller measurement aperture that scans the
inner pipe at higher vertical resolution.

Log processing is performed with GOWell’s proprietary module built within the industry leading Well Integrity
platform – MIPSPro. All MFC and MTD data can be processed, viewed and interpreted side-by-side within a single
software platform.
