Galileo jam mitigation technology
Reservoir Group has developed several jam mitigation solutions with our Galileo Jam Mitigation technology being developed for the QC 6 ½” core barrel platform and utilises sliding sleeves inside the Inner Barrel Assembly which allow for a total of up to two core jams within the Inner Barrel Assembly.

Galileo Jam Mitigation Technology



Core jamming is the primary issue associated with the early termination of a core run. This can lead to core damage and degradation of quality, poor recovery and can even milling the core away, if not addressed, leading to the loss of vital reservoir information that is irreplaceable.

To address this problem Reservoir Group has developed several jam mitigation solutions with our Galileo Jam Mitigation technology being developed for the QC 6 ½” core barrel platform and utilises sliding sleeves inside the Inner Barrel Assembly which allow for a total of up to two core jams within the Inner Barrel Assembly.
