BLM GmbH carries out borehole measurements under pressure using pressure equipment. The term
“under pressure” refers to the condition that there is gas overpressure in the riser of
production probe installations or that water wells are highly artesian.
The
pressure equipment is then used to secure the entry of measuring probes for the purpose of
investigating or checking probe installations or to check the technical condition and
functionality of artesian deep wells.
In such cases, the sealing is carried out with the aid of a shut-off valve (preventer) in
connection with lock pipes installed above it or by using a stuffing box.
For
this purpose, BLM GmbH has sluices with a diameter of 2″ and 4″ into which all measuring
probes can enter under the given conditions.
