Research Progress and Application Prospect of Visual Inspection Technology for Oil and Gas Wells
Visual inspection technology for oil and gas wells has the characteristics of intuition and high efficiency,which is widely used in borehole detection,casing inspection,fishing operation,output after perforation and production monitoring.This paper introduces the de-velopment history of visual inspection technology and equipment for oil and gas wells,compares the performance and characteristics of visual logging tools of domestic and foreign companies such as EVCAM,DHVI,ZERLUX and Xi'an Zhengyuan Well Image.It illustrates the ap-plication effect of visual logging technology in oil and gas development based on several cases.Finally,the development direction and appli-cation future of this technology are prospected.
