About SPE «Looch»
Scientific production enterprise of geophysical equipment «Looch» (SPE «Looch») has been founded in 1990 for the purpose of design and production of new generation electromagnetic logging equipment for investigation of prospecting and development oil-gas wells.
More than 300 wireline VIKIZ complexes, which are among the main SPE «Looch» production, operate now in different regions of Russia. Decades complexes are used in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and China.
The distinctive feature of the Enterprise is complex approach to design the modern geophysical equipment. The approach implies the wide range of profound theoretical considerations of mathematical and physical modeling, metrological monitoring, selection of modern solutions for circuit technique, and applying innovative technologies for batch production. Such problems can be accomplished due to close interaction with scientific institutes of Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy Of Sience. The enterprise permanent partners are Institute of Geophysics, Institute of Hydrodynamics, and other SB RAS institutes. Next step in improvement of logging tools and VIKIZ-method was development of self-contained equipment for investigation of highly inclined boreholes and holes with horizontal completion - «Almaz-1» and «Almaz-2». These complexes consist of 9-zonde VIKIZ measuring module, inclinometer, GR-channel, thermometer, mud-resistivity meter and surface depth control system. In 2000-2005 geophysicists of West Siberia get more than 45 «Almaz» complexes.
Since 2001 to 2003 have been realized successful borehole tests of the new product developments. These are LWD system called VIKPB and electromagnetic defectoscope. By request of some companies, «Auto-Pulse» equipment for shallow electromagnetic scanning is developed. The FKZ-tool (galvanic focused sounding equipment) is at the stage of laboratorial and borehole tests. Works for development of the 3-phase (gas-oil-water) flow meter for producing oil well, equipment for control the parameters of drilling mud and informational-measuring system for «intellectualization» of producing well are making.
