Turning Cuttings into Clarity: AI and LiDAR Empower Real-Time Wellbore Insights

2025-10-31

In drilling operations, every cutting carries a message from the formation. Its shape can indicate specific instability mechanisms. Real-time analysis of these cuttingsallows operators to spot problems early and prevent wellbore collapse.

Vertechs BoreSens Real-Time Wellbore Monitoring System leverages LiDAR-based detection and AI-powered image analytics to deliver continuous, high-resolution monitoring of downhole conditions. Through real-time analysis of cutting morphology and particle size distribution (PSD), the system establishes dynamic correlations between formation characteristics and drilling parameters, allowing for:

  • Continuous assessment of wellbore stability

  • Quantitative evaluation of hole cleaning efficiency

  • Proactive identification of potential operational risks

  • Data-driven decision-making

Operating as an autonomous monitoring solution, BoreSens transmits real-time data via the WITS protocol while maintaining full compatibility with diverse drilling systems. Its fully private deployment ensures 100% data security, enabling smooth and safe operations across all drilling activities.
