About

Applied Physics Systems is a leading manufacturer of sensors and systems used in oil field, industrial and scientific applications.  We design and engineer all of the products we supply.  Our primary products are directional sensors, magnetometers and downhole drilling sensors and electronics.

History: Applied Physics Systems was founded in 1976 by Bill Goodman and for over thirty years has developed expertise in the design and manufacture of magnetometer sensors.  In the last fifteen years, Applied Physics has developed and expanded its products for drilling systems, electrical, mechanical, and computer software systems.

Applied Physics Systems is a leader in the manufacture of magnetic field measuring equipment including Fluxgate Magnetometers, DC SQUID Magnetometers and Clip-on Milliammeters. We also manufacture a broad line of Angular Orientation measuring sensors including Steering Sensors for Directional Drilling applications and miniaturized sensors for general purpose use.

In addition to our standard products, APS conducts contract research for other organizations in the fields of its expertise. APS can design and build modified versions of our instruments as well as completely new instruments to solve your needs for magnetic field measurement, orientation sensors, steering tools and clip-on milliammeters.

APS is also a world leader in the design and production of Rock Magnetometer systems and accessories. These systems are produced in partnership with William S. Goree, Inc. and are sold under the 2G Enterprises name. 2G has its own web site with complete information on the instruments offered: http://www.2GEnterprises.com

Successful Commercial Deployment of Custom EM System in Siberia

Applied Physics Systems, Inc. and its marketing partner for the Russian/CIS countries, GeoTrend, have completed successful deployment of a custom-designed Wireline Dipole EM System in Western Siberia, drilling several underbalanced wells in difficult geographical areas of Russia. The system utilizes a wireline system, integrated with an EM telemetry system, to recomplete wells with underbalanced technology, greatly reducing damage to the formation, which is common when using conventional techniques. The resulting oil flow was over 100 barrels per hour while not on the pump. The entire underbalanced drilling system, which includes the Applied Physics EM MWD system, is available from GeoTrend. In this application, the system is being used to drill one or two sidetracks in existing vertical wells. The resulting oil flow from these recompletions is typically several hundred barrels per hour.
