MILAN--(뉴스와이어)--GEOLOG, the largest independent surface-logging company and a pioneer in applying AI to formation evaluation and automated drilling performance, today announced the immediate availability of KickMaster™, a patented family of flow meters engineered to provide accurate, real-time measurements in the most demanding drilling environments.

Developed by GEOLOG’s in-house R&D team, KickMaster™ addresses long-standing challenges in measuring heterogeneous mud flows. The system delivers reliable flow, density, and temperature data during critical drilling events, enabling faster detection, better decision-making, and improved well control.

Three engineered models for precise flow management

·Flow-Out Meter - For standard and high-volume mud returns. Operates reliably with >40% gas in mud and introduces ~70% lower backpressure than typical meters, supporting higher flow rates in top-hole sections. Includes a full bypass loop for faster, cost-effective rig-up.

·Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) Meter - A higher-pressure variant rated to 550 psi, purpose-built for modern MPD operations. Ships with its own bypass loop for seamless integration into new or existing MPD systems.

·Standpipe High-Pressure Meter - Rated to 10,000 psi for robust, highly accurate Flow-In measurement, providing essential inputs for hydraulic modelling, pump performance assessment, and overall drilling safety and efficiency.

By overcoming the measurement issues associated with high gas-cut and high-solids muds, KickMaster™ improves data quality across all drilling phases, enhancing early-event detection, reducing non-productive time, and supporting safer operations offshore and onshore.

Richard Calleri, CEO of GEOLOG, said: “Our customers have consistently asked for reliable, accurate flow measurement throughout every phase of drilling. KickMaster™ delivers exactly that, bringing stronger well-control intelligence to the rig and helping operators increase safety while reducing cost, particularly in offshore environments.”
