The KeyDrill Pulser Driver (KPD) is a universally designed driver that is compatible with most mud-pulse pulsers on the market. Its low power consumption can extend the battery life. The robust shock/vibration damping can protect the driver module from the severe conditions of rough drilling while maintaining excellent detection of flow status…

The KIDM is a full featured 185°C Directional Module designed and manufactured by KeyDrill for Q-Bus based MWD systems. At a total length of 29.7 inches, the KIDM integrates both the MPU and TPS, eliminating separate units and their associated cost and interfacing. It’s a plug-and-play High Temperature Directional Module compatible with QDT legacy tools.

KeyDrill has teamed up with the most widely used survey experts such as H&P (MagVAR), Superior QC, roundLAB and IPM to create automate survey correction for efficient workflow. Automate survey correction procedures help avoid human errors by eliminating manual data entry, save man-hours and improve wellbore placement accuracy without loss of rig time. The correction procedures run in the background and can automatically synchronize with survey correction cloud stations. It can also provide our customers remote access through a cloud server from anywhere in the world.
KeyDrill has extensively tested our newly designed tools with great success. Multiple field runs combined with extensive 185° shop testing has verified the new KeyDrill 185°C High-Temp MWD Technology.
Read MoreKeyDrill has extensively tested our newly design. The new design recovered and began to function again when cooled to 192°C.
The extensive testing was prompted by multiple customers relaying excitement for not just surviving Hot Hole conditions down hole, but continuing to run at extreme conditions. Multiple field runs combined with extensive 185° shop testing has verified the new KeyDrill 185°C High-Temp MWD Technology.
Case I:
In Austin County Texas, our customer finished a “Hot Hole” well using the New KeyDrill 185°C HT-Tech full directional package and a KeyDrill 185° Azimuthal Gamma Module. The ending measured depth was 21,976 ft and circulating temperature reached the scorching temperature of 180.9°C.
The KeyDrill downhole tool and surface tandem has proven that it successfully operates at a respectable pulse width of 0.375 second (1.4bps) in the field. KeyDrill has recently teamed up with a third party to achieve a true “Fast Pulse” system with pulse widths down to 0.125 second (4 bps) MWD system. The MWD system easily passed its flow-loop test on September 18, 2018 as seen in the video

RAzm provides real-time continuous Azimuth of the MWD tool while drilling. KeyDrill’s RAzm makes continuous Azimuth possible and will provide confidence in wellbore direction for drillers while drilling.
Recent firmware improvements to KeyDrill’s MPU have integrated rapid internal RPM detection. This feature provides for stick-slip monitoring and delta RPM detection without turning on the directional sensor for improved battery efficiency. The Stick-Slip Index (SSI) and Delta RPM (DRPM) are transmitted to the surface to give the driller valuable information about drilling conditions.
KeyDrill has developed an alert system that doesn’t require programming into the tool sequence to monitor critical data. It allows for quicker surveys and better logs by conserving bandwidth to be used for other data.
RTRD eliminates the need for a rotation flag and is used to resync the receiver system with the downhole tool without re-cycling mud pumps. It significantly reduces down time, increases ROP, and maximizes data efficiency.
KeyDrill’s new MPU design integrates the MPU and TPS into one module. KeyDrill’s Short Strongback is only 14 inches long, less than half of the standard QDT legacy-style strongback.
The KRG detects gamma values and create up to 8 bins images real-time as well as up to 16 bins from memory. It also provides more precise total gamma. The KRG is particularly valuable in Shale Reservoir Development (SRD) and Coal Bed Methane … (more)
Read MoreThe KRG detects gamma values and create up to 8 bins images real-time as well as up to 16 bins from memory. It also provides more precise total gamma. The KRG is particularly valuable in Shale Reservoir Development (SRD) and Coal Bed Methane (CBM) drilling, where the real-time borehole images facilitate geosteering and provide the formation’s structural data. The gamma ray data can identify the top or bottom boundary in CBM. This single LWD tool delivers superior value for unconventional reservoir well placement and evaluation as well as CBM drilling applications.
KPWD measures the annular (APWD), drill pipe (IPWD) and differential (DPWD) pressures, as well as the downhole temperature (ATMP) during no-flow, drilling, wiping, or tripping out of the hole. It allows the driller to “see and feel” the dynamic … (more)
