Non-Magnetic Drill Pipe: Precision Wellbore Surveying Without Compromise
The Magnetic Interference Challenge
Conventional drill pipes distort critical surveying data:
-Azimuth errors >3° in high-latitude wells
-Total field distortion exceeding MWD tool compensation limits
-Well collision risks due to inaccurate trajectory data
Our solution delivers:
✅ <1.005 μ magnetic permeability (10x lower than standard pipes)
✅ ISO 10407-2 survey-grade accuracy
✅ Zero recalibration runs between sections
