Gyro-Guide GWD™

Gyrodata has ushered in a new era of measurement-while-drilling technology with the introduction of Gyro-Guide GWD-applying state-of-the-art rate-gyroscopic guidance sensors to the directional drilling environment with wireless telemetry.

A new revolution in guidance adds the rate-gyro sensor to MWD systems in drilling operations.

Key Advantages

• Gyro-Guide saves considerable rigtime and provides a safer operation by eliminating the need to use wireline gyros to orient or steer drilling assemblies.
• Rate-gyro accuracy assures precise wellbore guidance for collision avoidance and precise trajectory placement.
• Unaffected by magnetic interference, Gyro-Guide sensors can run closer to the bit in the MWD string by eliminating the need for nonmagnetic spacing collars.

• Provides continuous toolface data from vertical while drilling and full surveys when required.
• Communicates in real-time through the host MWD mud pulse or EM telemetry system.
