INFICON PROSPECTOR DQMS specialized for oil and gas exploration:

This premier portable DQMS mass spectrometer for wellsite use is fully deployable for real-time mudlogging applications. This is a direct quadrupole mass spectrometer gas analyzer providing broad spectrum analysis for gas species having molecular weights between AMU2 and AMU150. This gives an approximate PPM reading for every volatile gas species (whether hydrocarbon or not) between Hydrogen and Decane (C10). This instrument connects to any rig EDR system via WITS input for lag information and depth correlation. Data can be exported at any time as a LAS file or viewed live through our user-friendly monitoring software package.

GEOLOGICAL H2S MONITORING:   

Geological H2S monitoring can be provided using an Ottis OI-675 meter (0-100 ppm) or 

the Ottis OI-6000 meter (0-2000 ppm).   These reading are read directly from the drilling fluid by 

direct agitation of the fluid.   This data is not to be confused with safety H2S readings that are provided by most safety and health oil service companies.
