what about gyro while drilling?
Heriot Watt that good? Their distance learning program looks interesting, but does it mean you only get to access their lecture materials or view recorded lectures? NUS is currently offering Offshore Technology masters, they both cost about the same but the advantage is in NUS you get to attend real classes. Not sure how the distance learning thing will work?
as i posted before,
mwd tools are basically installed as the bha at the drill bit. it measures either
azimuth or inclination of the drilled well or the mechanics information such as drill bit rpm, temp, wob, etc
where azimuth or inclination can be measured using installed gyroscope at the bha (bottomhole assembly at the drill bit)
yeah heriot watt is one of the best pet eng school available. but then, if u wanna go for the best available pet eng school, try united states universities such as csm, texas a&m, stanford uni, uni of texas at austin coz these universities are known worldwide for their pet eng program.
