APPLICATIONS The BEST* buildup evaluation shut-in tool
■■ Any well test requiring a pressure is a slickline-, e-line-, or CT-deployed, battery
buildup survey powered, surface preprogrammable multicycle
■■ Simultaneous multizone testing downhole shut-in tool. It is designed to set
in a completion nipple profile or in conjunction
■■ Interference and isochronal testing
with an anchor device.
■■ H2S and CO2 environments
■■ Sandy environments Using quartz gauges in conjunction with the
BEST tool provides a new level of accuracy
BENEFITS in pressure buildup evaluation data. Through
■■ Instant shut-in (less than 2 s in downhole placement, the elimination of the
downhole conditions) wellbore storage effect—coupled with the
■■ Industry-reference memory unique speed of the BEST tool multicycle snap-
quartz-gauge accuracy shut valve—ensures optimal data acquisition
conditions and allows a new level of reservoir
FEATURES pressure transient analysis.
■■ Operating pressure up to 15,000 psi
[103 MPa]
■■ High flow rates
■■ Differential pressure up to 10,000 psi
[69 MPa] in both directions
■■ Rated to 350 degF [175 degC]
■■ Applicable in both production and
injection wells
■■ Up to 10 close, equalizing, and open cycles
■■ Programmable equalizing time prior
to opening
■■ No sand flow erosion during
closing/opening cycles
■■ Set and retrieved by slickline in any
seating nipple
■■ Set using GeoLock monobore lock
sealing mandrel when there is no landing
nipple, or there is a damaged
landing nipple
■■ Set and depth correlated using the
GeoLock mandrel
■■ GeoLock mandrel setting and depth
correlation (GR/CCL) using LIVE*
digital slickline services
■■ Conveyed and set by CT
■■ Vibration and shock-tested
