- State of the art service equipment for both gauges and capillary
- Real time commutator to continuously monitor downhole gauge while running in hole (RIH)
Benefits For Gauges In Gas lift Wells
The downhole data obtained through our systems offers many benefits to any downhole completion or artificial lift system. With our extensive experience running gauges in gas lift wells throughout the Permian we are well versed in the many practical benefits specific to gas lift systems.
- Downhole Flowback Monitoring
- Gas Lift Performance Optimization
- Reservoir Data. Frac Hit Migration Mapping
- Better Infill Drilling Planning
Our most popular gauge by far for Gas Lift applications in the Permian basin is the PT150 SRO. Providing high-resolution high accuracy digital data and extreme durability.

What Makes Our Gauges The Best?
Feature
Advantages
Benefit
Pressure Testable Cablehead
The cablehead is how the gauge connects to the downhole cable and number one cause of failure for permanent gauges. GEO PSI has a patented system so that we pressure test the gauge on the rig floor before going downhole
Eliminate Failures Before They Occur
Construction
All metal to metal sealing system with multiple barriers. No primary elastomer seals
Reliability
Lightning Protection
Only downhole gauge in the world that IEC 61326 certified. Can withstand 15,000 volts and RF and magnetic field immunity. Protection against lightning and power surges
Reliability
Miniaturization
Able to fit into tighter spaces (i.e. Small casing)
Greater ability to withstand shock and vibration
Reliability
Convenience
Multi-Gauge Option
Up to 10 gauges can be connected to a single downhole instrumentation cable
Perfect For Observation Wells
Smart Technology
The downhole serial number of gauges transmits to surface to ensure that the right calibration files are utilized
Advanced diagnostic data is transmitted to surface
Perfect For Pad Work & Long-Term Support
Reduce Field Trips & Support Costs
Fast Sample Rate
Can sample up to 10 times per second
Ideal For Stimulation & Frac Monitoring
We Know That It's All About The Data
While we do provide industry leading downhole gauges, they are nothing without equally dependable surface electronics and data integrity. From our innovative 4mm TEC all the way to our dedicated Surface Electronics, reliability and data integrity are a top priority.
Our digital gauges connect to our G6 Downhole Gauge controller which decodes the downhole telemetry from up to 10 downhole gauges and ties it into other surface electronics or SCADA systems.
