Articulating Hole Finder

Navigate and log the most complex wells

Impact Selector’s Articulating Hole Finder™ (AHF) is specifically engineered to navigate open hole wells with restrictions, deviations, ledges and washouts.

The AHF prevents downhole restrictions from terminating the wireline service providers ability to get to the target, and ultimately compromise the ability to obtain data.

Impact Selector’s Articulating HoleFinder™ (AHF) is a specifically engineered hole finder that incorporates responsive articulation and adjustment based on downhole conditions.

Features

ISI’s conveyance solution combines the Articulating Hole Finder™ and field-proven I-wheel™ to provide reactive articulation and adjustment based on downhole conditions.
