What is MWD (Measurement While Drilling)?
MWD, which stands for Measurement While Drilling, is an advanced well logging technique developed to address the challenges associated with drilling at extreme angles. This technique involves integrating measurement tools into the drill string to provide real-time information that aids in optimizing the steering of the drill. MWD is responsible for measuring various physical properties such as temperature, pressure, and the trajectory of the wellbore. It precisely determines the borehole's inclination and azimuth, relaying this data to the surface where it can be monitored instantly by operators.
