Javelin GWD™ Solid-state low-angle Gyro while drilling

Javelin GWD™ solid-state low-angle gyro while drilling transforms the processes of tophole kickoff, batch setting, and multiwell drilling. Using solid-state technology, it enhances operational efficiency while helping to reduce carbon emissions. Designed specifically for standard tophole kickoff environments, this innovative solution surpasses traditional spinning-mass gyro-while-drilling systems in both efficiency and reliability. It can complete a survey in just 2½ min—up to 2 min faster than competing gyro measurement-while-drilling systems and legacy GWD systems.
