Measurement While Drilling is abbreviated as MWD. It is used to take the measurement of the inclination angle against the vertical line through the process. MWD drilling software then takes up all these values.The oil well paths are plotted in 3-D using this information. Communication between the operator and the floor is crucial and is provided by this software.
The software transmits information on the direction the well is being drilled. Directional survey can be done by the software and sent in real time. Azimuth and the inclination angle of the drill hole are measured by the magnetometers and accelerometers in it. Immediately information on them has been measured it is transmitted to the surface for analysis
The location of the wellbore can be obtained by data taken at intervals between ten meters to five hundred meters send to the surface. The informative shows the company if the location drilled is or is not within their exploration block. It is not necessary to get this information when you wellhole is being drilled vertically or at a very small angle from the vertical line.
The surveys is mainly used in directional-drilling. Directional-drilling forms the main or core part of any survey. Finding and moving towards the target zone of the well will be made easier by this information. Directional-drilling is aided by MWD by the provision of tool face measurements which uses downhole mud motors with bent housing or bent.
There is the smoothness of rotation, mud flow volume, downhole temperature, the drillstring speed of rotation, and the weight and torque on the bit, this information is sent to the mechanics of the drill bit which leads to more efficient operations. The tools are also used in accordance with their specifications thus cannot break down. Understanding the rock formation of the area is crucial to geologists.
Drillers use information from the MWD tools for performing geosteering to the zones targeted. The software sends formation properties of the area being drilled at that moment. This kind of information will be on porosity, inclination of the drill bit, the resistivity and the acoustic-caliper which is very important to the driller.
There is also the measurement of natural gamma rays measurements at the well using internal gamma ray sensor installed in MWD tools. The sensors cost a lot, are compact and able to take measurements when drilling unmodified drill collars. Compacts and cheap sensors will do unmodified drill collars during operations. MWD software cuts the various process costs and increases the lifespan of the drill bits.
The data they get during the operations is either transmitted by the mud-pulse telemetry method and electromagnetic telemetry. In the mud-pulse telemetry method the mud valve downhole which restricts the flow of slurry creates pressure differences which are send to the surface as for analysis. It can either be positive, negative pulse/continuous wave.
In electromagnetic telemetry method by the MWD software, altered voltage is generated in the upper and lower part of the electrical insulator then incorporated in the drillstring. There is a wire from both thewellhead on the surface and the rod which form the electrodes of a dipole antenna. These electrodes provide information from analysis of the voltage signals.
