| Inventors: |
Lawrence Murdoch and Todd Schweisinger |
| Summary: |
Device is used to measure
changes in rock fractures intersecting boreholes. Useful in determining
displacements resulting from extracting or injecting fluid, or
other processes. Unique in that the device can be remotely anchored
in a borehole, and can be easily removed from, or repositioned
within a borehole. One version of the device is designed to be
stable during long-term measurements. A simpler version is designed
to be used during well tests. These are significant, new features. |
| Applications: |
Use by research organizations and by
commercial entities to determine formation properties, or effects
and possible risks during extraction or injection of fluids. |
