Modular operational flexibility
SlimXtreme It’s the innovative, modular design that makes MDT Forte and MDT Forte-HT
rugged and high-temperature modular formation dynamics testers readily
Xtreme HPHT Logging Platform customizable for your applications. The MDT Forte and MDT Forte-HT testers are
combinable to exactly meet the requirements and goals of any reservoir fluid DFA
or sampling program. This designed-in flexibility also makes the testers
compatible with almost all Schlumberger measurement technologies and enables
quickly evolving the MDT Forte tester as new measurement sensors, techniques,
technologies, and options are developed.

The components, electronics boards, and subassemblies of the MDT Forte and reservoir in Mexico without sanding or
MDT Forte-HT testers are subjected to numerous tests conducted at a system seal failure. Read case study
level for the entire tool as well as being individually tested. The mission profile of
the MDT Forte tester design is quantified, reliable tool operation for 100 h under
the full operational and environmental load. The harshest situations that Learn About New Advances
equipment may experience during field operations are simulated, including

multiple jarring events. The last step is a lengthy operational test under cycles of
temperature, power, functional load, and shock. An extensive database is
compiled from this reliability test to define preventive mantenance events,
ensuring that the most reliable tool is deployed for each and every job.
The two inflatable packer elements that seal against the borehole wall to isolate
up to an 11.2-ft interval of the formation, which improves the effectiveness of
pressure measurement and fluid sampling in low-permeability, laminated, or
fractured formations. Because the isolated area of borehole wall is thousands of
times larger than the standard probe area, fluids can be withdrawn at a higher rate
without dropping below bubble point. Combined with a probe, the Dual-Packer
Module is used to conduct interval pressure transient tests (IPTTs) to determine
horizontal and vertical mobilities around the wellbore. Mini drillstem tests (DSTs)
conducted with the Dual-Packer Module offer advantages over conventional DSTs,
delivering high vertical resolution along the well for characterizing nearby layering
and heterogenities. It is environmentally friendly because no fluids flow to the
surface, and it is cost effective because many zones can be tested in a short time.
The Dual-Packer Module can also be used to create a micro-hydraulic fracture
that can be pressure tested to determine the minimum in situ stress magnitude.
Multisample collection
The Multisample Module collects high-quality samples for PVT analysis. Six
formation fluid samples, 450-cm3 each, can be retrieved during a single trip into
the well. Sample bottles detach easily from the tool for transport to a PVT
laboratory. The bottles meet transportation regulations for shipping pressurized
vessels, so no wellsite transfer is necessary.
For single-phase sampling, the Multisample Module can be fitted with Single-
Phase Multisample Chambers.
