GYRO SHOT Gyroscopically-oriented Borehole Survey Tools

EASY TO USE
Gyro Shot tools are very simple to operate. No special training is required.

MEMORY BASED
The Gyro Shot is a memory-based tool. This means that unlike some other
gyro systems, there is no need to connect the instrument to the surface with a
wire. Nevertheless, should you require data in real-time, it is possible to use the
Gyro Shot with a wireline modem.

OPERATES LIKE A MULTISHOT

The Gyro Shot operates much like a multishot. The tool is run through the hole
and is halted at intervals to take static shots.

INSTANT RESULTS
Gyro Shot tools are completely digital, meaning that survey results are
available immediately upon recovery. Digital data also mean no more data entry
errors. Menu-driven software provided with Gyro Shot tools produces data les
suitable for loading into spreadsheets and popular data-visualization software.

ANY DIRECTION
Gyro Shot tools can operate in any orientation. Horizontal or vertical holes
present no difculties.

AT LAST A TRUE SLIMLINE GYROSCOPIC TOOL
Gyro Shot tools use a tri-axial gyroscope module to monitor the rotation of the instrument through time. Con-
tinuous recording and self-calibration permits long-term operation while maintaining accuracy. Gyro Shot tools
also contain a magnetometer that can be used to record the magnetic prole of the hole or, in the absence of
external elds, as a second independent measure of the hole azimuth.

THROUGH-THE-BIT SURVEYS ARE A THING OF THE PAST (unless you want to)
Unless magnetic measurements of the rock are important, the Gyro Shot is run inside the rods, thereby elimi-
nating the risk of through-the-bit surveys. If you want magnetic data, you must run through-the-bit. The Gyro
Shot is slim enough to do this even in AQ rods!
