fluid temperature, which can be used for finding fluid entry, gas leaks, and
injection zones. It is also useful in finding cement tops.

Description
The Platinum Resistance Thermometer tool is small and compact. The tool plays a critical role in PL interpretation and
is an integral piece of equipment in any production logging string.

The PRT measures downhole temperature by measuring the resistance of a platinum resistance element. The probe is
contained in a pressure tight Inconel® needle, protruding into an open slot through which borehole fluid can flow. The
measurements from the low mass probe result in high resolution data with fast temperature response.

Features
• Leak detection
• Location of production and injection zones
• Cement top identification
• Location of fluid movement behind pipe
• Fast response
• Simultaneous operation with other Sondex Ultrawire* tools
