News and Events

The Myanmar Water Resources Utilization Department (WRUD) of the government recently received a training by Mount Sopris Instruments geophysicist Lia Martinez. The WRUD hydrogeologists purchased groundwater well logging instrumentation and a televiewer to increase their ability to construct wells in regions of complex subsurface geology.

Mount Sopris is now offering the RS-230 BGO Super-SPEC Handheld Gamma-Ray Spectrometer. It’s ideal For Field Exploration for hydrogeology, mining, and geotech, providing Search, Assay, and Scan Modes of Operation. The large BGO crystal provides a superior level of accuracy!

Mount Sopris is pleased to introduce Marcus Donaldson, magnetic resonance specialist and our link to Qteq, makers of the Borehole Magnetic Resonance (BMR) tool. Marcus received a PhD in magnetic resonance at University of California, Berkeley before joining Schlumberger where he first worked as a wireline field engineer.

In the May 2018 Wireline Workshop Bulletin, we continued the discussion of sonic logs and spontaneous potential and how they are applied in geotechnical and mining applications.

Don’t miss meeting us at EAGE 2018 in Copenhagen, Denmark next week June 12-14th. Following the outstanding success of the high resolution QL40-OBI-2G Optical Televiewer, and listening to customers, we have added an additional UV light ring so both white light and UV light images can be presented and processed in WellCAD.

Mount Sopris geophysicist Lia Martinez recently traveled to Vietnam where she met with a Hydroelectric Energy company (Electricity Vietnam EVN) and their geologists for OPTV optical televiewer training. The focus on developing and maintaining safe hydroelectric power in Vietnam has become a national priority.
