MSI supplies a wide variety of downhole probes including electric, nuclear, full waveform sonic, induction, video, magnetic susceptibility, borehole gyro, spectral gamma, water quality, optical and acoustic imagery, and many, many more. We have teamed with the best manufacturing companies in the world to bring customers this one-stop showcase of downhole probes. MSI specialise in small diameter, lightweight tools.

Log Acquisition & Presentation / Interpretation Software

Operating under the latest Windows environment, our latest log acquisition software (MSLog) allows users access to Windows hardware options, including printer and other device drivers. When operated with the MGX II family of loggers, high data rates are achieved with multiple modem options. A standard serial interface passes data from the logger to the user's PC, so that no external PC-MCIA or ISA plug-in cards are required. MSLog is based on field-tested architecture that can be upgraded in the future as operating systems evolve along with PC hardware.
