Abstract:Measurement While Drilling (MWD) tools include accelerometers, magnetometers and temperature sensors. The accuracy of these sensors are highly important in measuring Inclination and Azimuth angle parameters in a directional well. These factors can increase costs when drilling a directional well. During the past years, many efforts have been made to increase the accuracy of these tools. Accuracy of accelerometer and magnetometer sensors are influenced by scale, bias and non-orthogonal errors. Considering that M… Show more
