X-ray Diffraction
Bring a True Science into Your Fingertips
X-ray diffraction; Is a non-destructive mineral analysis technique based on the detection of diffracted X-ray by the crystal lattice structure of the specific mineral. D2-Phaser is a state-of-the-art and perfect solution for X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and an essential technique in the analysis of shale rock formations, allowing for qualitative and quantitative mineralogical characterization. This information provides insight into well site behavior and enables better steering decisions, tailoring of drilling fluids, calculations of brittleness and hardness, understanding of chemical reactivity, and more.
X-ray diffraction is the top candidate for better insights into the well by providing accurate, precise, and robust results of Rock-Forming Minerals and Matrix-associated minerals.
Providing the Results as You Speak, Quick and Accurate results is our top priority by having a very Short Turn Around Time “STAT” in a way that you will not have to wait to decide what is next.
