Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-002495

A system that transmits downhole drilling parameters and formation evaluation data to the surface in real time. This technology allows drillers to make immediate decisions regarding well trajectory and drilling efficiency. MWD tools typically use mud pulse telemetry to send data through the drilling fluid column.
