Empirica, a rapidly growing surface logging company and a member of Reservoir Group, is launching two new technologies that will dramatically cut the time it takes to sample and view well data.

Dual Flame Ionised Detection (Dual FID) technology is a high-speed chromatograph, and Live Logging is a real-time cloud-based system that allows operators and geologists to interact with wells from any computer or device anywhere during the drilling process.

Dual FID is an industry leading measurement system, with unique high-speed chromatograph technology. The 36-second chromatograph significantly improves on the current industry average of 45-65 seconds and provides 100 percent resolution between components.

The high speed equates to more sampling per foot at a fast rate of penetration and can help differentiate laminated sands and low resistivity pay - allowing operators to make quicker decisions, saving time and money.
