A drilling rig is a machine that creates holes in the earth sub-surface. Drilling rigs can be massive structures housing equipment used to drill water wells, oil wells, or natural gas extraction wells, or they can be small enough to be moved manually by one person and are called augers. Drilling rigs can sample sub-surface mineral deposits, test rock, soil and groundwater physical properties, and also can be used to install sub-surface fabrications, such as underground utilities, instrumentation, tunnels or wells.

Tungsten Alloy Weight for Oil Logging Rig

Tough environments call for tough products.Tungsten alloy weightsare perfect for oil logging rig, which must be heavy enough to sink through surface and sub-surface materials and strong enough to withstand significant pressure.Tungsten alloy weight is widely used for logging tools. Tungsten alloys can be used in a wide range of applications for the oil and gas industry, including well logging equipment, tungsten drilling components, nuclear logging equipment, and directional drilling equipment.

Tungsten Alloy is often used in the Oil and Gas industry due to its high strength and reliability. Used in wireline, it is often used as a weighting system to offset the increased pressure beneath the surface of the Earth to assist in drilling for Oil. Because tungsten alloy is higher in density per volume, tungsten alloy is preferred over lead, combine this with the environmentally friendlier properties in tungsten versus lead, and you can see why tungsten alloy is becoming the most widely used metal in the Oil and Gas industry.

The high density of tungsten alloys, which is critical to the radiation shielding, are also extremely beneficial for sinker bar applications. These high density weights or series of weights are attached to the down hole logging tool assemblies in order to add the extra weight to help the tool properly descend through the heavy borehole fluids.

Advantage of tungsten alloy weight?

density as 18.5g/cm3 max

hardness as 36 HRC max

high wear-resistance

high impact resistance

excellent durability

tungsten heavy alloy is very suitable material for down-hole logging of underground water, oil and gas, etc. Special mechanical property is overweight large component in this case.

Price of tungsten alloy weight for oil logging rig will be offered based on size, density, quantity, hardness, and any other specific requirements.
