Advanced Mud Logging

Advanced surface-data solutions that strengthen early warning, gas characterization, flow awareness, and operational visibility while drilling.

Capability overview

Built around the decision, not just the equipment.

Zima Tose'e Parsian Kish provides a focused suite of advanced mud logging technologies designed to give drilling teams clearer, earlier, and more actionable information at the wellsite.

01

The operational challenge

Understand the condition before choosing the response.

While drilling, critical signals arrive from different sources and at different times. Flow, gas, drilling parameters, cuttings, and geological observations must be depth-aligned and interpreted together before a developing condition becomes an operational problem.

02

Zima's approach

Connect technical scope with field execution.

Zima combines calibrated surface acquisition, controlled gas extraction, extended hydrocarbon analysis, geological observation, and experienced wellsite interpretation. The result is a coherent real-time picture rather than a collection of isolated channels.

Scope

What the capability includes.

  • Early Kick Detection System (EKD)
  • C1–C8 gas chromatography
  • Helium detection
  • High-resolution flow monitoring
  • Video analytics during drilling operations
  • Constant Volume Degasser (CVD)

Delivery workflow

A controlled path from definition to technical closeout.

The exact program is adapted to the well, operating environment, available data, and the client's decision criteria.

  1. Measurement design

    Align the sensor package, gas-analysis program, sample intervals, lag tracking, and reporting plan with the well objectives.

  2. Calibrated acquisition

    Capture drilling, flow, gas, and geological information through checked and documented wellsite systems.

  3. Depth and time correlation

    Correct for lag and combine surface measurements with operational context so trends can be interpreted consistently.

  4. Interpretation and communication

    Maintain logs, communicate material deviations, and provide clear technical records for the drilling and geology teams.

Typical deliverables

Information the operating team can use.

  • Real-time drilling and flow trend displays
  • C1–C8 gas and helium analysis records
  • Depth-aligned geological and gas logs
  • Operational event and alarm chronology
  • Daily reports and end-of-well data package

Where it applies

Configured for the operating context.

  • Exploration and appraisal wells
  • Development drilling
  • Hydrocarbon show evaluation
  • Formation-pressure transition awareness
  • Operations requiring enhanced surface-data resolution

Operational value

A more complete view of well conditions—supporting faster interpretation, stronger operational awareness, and safer drilling decisions.
