MAXIM Technology’s range of products can be deployed on either electric wireline for surface read-out (SRO) or memory for downhole recording.

MAXIM's High Speed Telemetry interface (HSTi) system is used to transmit data from downhole tools to a surface acquisition system and is one of the fastest available for use on monocable. Inter-tool communication is available via the Downhole Tool Bus (DTB) which enables very high speed communication between tools and downhole data processing.

Downhole data recording is facilitated by the High Capacity Memory Cartridge (HCMC) which is available with memory in increments of 16Mbyte for almost unlimited recording capability.

All tools are built using approved NACE specification materials (MRO175) for use in wells containing H2S and/or CO2.

Amongst other products, Maxim manufactures the world’s shortest 9 sensor production logging tool (PPL).

101 Accelerometer Velocity Tool
Measures changes in tool string velocity (acceleration) along the wellbore axis, and also measures wellbore deviation. Enables correction of data corruption caused by tool yo-yo and stick-slip motion. Return to: Top Codes


102 Casing Collar Locator
Detects joints between lengths of casing. A special CCL is designed to detect flush-joint casing. Return to: Top Codes


103 Scintillation Gamma Ray

Measures natural background radiation - used as a depth control device and to tie-in cased hole logs with open hole logs. Return to: Top Codes


104 Quartz Pressure Tool

Measures down hole pressure using a quartz pressure gauge. Return to: Top Codes


105 Temperature Tool

Performs a precision, high-resolution measurement of down hole temperature. Return to: Top Codes


106 Calliper Fullbore Flowmeter
Combines a two axis Calliper to measure wellbore diameter with a flowmeter to measure fluid flow, and provides lower centralisation when deployed with PPL. Return to: Top Codes

107 In-line Flowmeter
Measures flow of fluid in the well. Small diameter so can measure flow in tubing as well as casing. Return to: Top Codes

108 Radioactive Fluid Density Tool

Measures fluid density using a low energy radioactive source, in order to derive fluid identity (oil/water/gas). Return to: Top Codes


109 Differential Pressure Fluid Density

Measures fluid density using a precision differential pressure gauge. Return to: Top Codes


110 Water Hold-up Tool (sometimes referred to as CWH, capacitance water hold-up)

Measures hydrocarbon / water ratio in the well. Return to: Top Codes


111 Centraliser
Centralises the tool string in the wellbore. Return to: Top Codes

112 Calliper

 

Measures diameter of casing or tubing.Return to: Top Codes

113 Knuckle Joint
Allows decoupling of section of a logging tool string in order to run some elements centralised and others excentred. Return to: Top Codes

114 Swivel Joint
Allows rotational movement between the cable head and the toolstring below to allow cable to ‘untorque’ as it is run in the well. Return to: Top Codes

115 Head Tension Voltage Tool
Measures tension and compression at the tool head as well as tool head voltage. Return to: Top Codes

116 Addressable Release Tool
Enables engineer- controlled release of part of a cased hole toolstring in the event that the toolstring becomes stuck. Return to: Top Codes

117 Pocket Production Logging Tool
Ultra short, all-in-one production logging tool. The basic unit measures pressure, temperature, gamma ray, fluid capacitance, and CCL. Return to: Top Codes

118 Horizontal Fluid Profile Tool

Used to derive fluid identity and flow rates in highly deviated or horizontal wells. Return to: Top Codes


119 Orientation Velocity Tool
Measures tension and compression at the tool head, tool head-voltage, deviation and tool orientation. Return to: Top Codes

125 High Speed Telemetry Interface

Fully digital mono/co-axial cable telemetry system comprising downhole electronic cartridge (HSTC) and surface panel (HSTP) or DELTA surface system. Return to: Top Codes


126 Digital Evaluation Logging Tool Acquisition System

Highly compact computer based surface system used to acquire log data in real time. Employs a Windows-based system for ease of use and flexibility. Return to: Top Codes

127 Memory Cross-Over Tool

Enables a third party memory tool to be run with Maxim downhole tools. Return to: Top Codes


128 Vibration Monitoring Tool

Measures vibration occurring in a stuck drill pipe downhole. Return to: Top Codes


129 Fluid Identification Tool
Identifies the proportion of each fluid type (oil/water/gas) in order to derive the volumetric flowrate of each component in the well. Return to: Top Codes

130 Fluid Diverter Tool

Forces all flow from a low flow rate well through a small orifice in order to make accurate measurements of flowrate and fluid identity. Return to: Top Codes


131 High Capacity Memory Cartridge
Records log data downhole for later retrieval and viewing on a PC. Return to: Top Codes

132 Fixed Cage Flowmeter

A bottom flowmeter with a fixed diameter impeller used where a CFF is not appropriate. Return to: Top Codes


133 Multifinger Calliper

A calliper with a high radial density of measure fingers used to monitor casing/tubing corrosion, erosion and wear. Return to: Top Codes


134 Electromagnetic Thickness Tool
