Instrument Dynamics Controller
Owen Instrumentation’s IDC is designed to prevent the rotation of a tool string that is being orientated, or, to prevent a tractor from rolling backwards when stopped in a hole with greater than 90 degrees deviation. Different Hi-Grip pads/configurations are available to provide resistance against uphole and downhole movement or angular rotation.
The IDC is run into the wellbore above the tractor in the closed position and opened when on depth. The tool can be opened and closed multiple times while in hole and the anchoring force can be controlled from surface by the engineer. The tool can be run in combination with other Ballistics Delivery System tools and with client specific tools.
