What We Do

Horizon offers professional field geology services.  Our focus on professionalism, technology and communication, combined with unequalled geological expertise, makes us the vendor you want at the well site. 

Horizon's approach to mud logging is a unique blend of experience (over 5,000 wells) and innovation.  Working with a number of our customers, we developed a well site process designed to ensure customer satisfaction every day on every job. Our people are trained in this process-based approach and every log is reviewed twice daily (by a supervisor and a quality control analyst) to ensure it is complete and accurate. 

We also developed a technology suite that provides 24/7/365 access to real-time drilling and gas detection data, formation tops and other critical wellsite variables.  You can access this information over the web or your mobile phone, giving you the up-to-the-second accuracy you need to make critical decisions about the well.

Our geosteering services were developed over time based upon our participation in horizontal drilling from its earliest days.  Since then we have worked on over 2,000 horizontal wells, developing a sophisticated methodology for helping geologists make the right decisions in steering horizontal drilling.  We go far beyond the gamma ray analysis of our competitors by examining wellsite geological data and by focusing on extensive communication between the large number of interested parties--geologist, directional driller, company man, engineer and MWD technicians.  By acting as the information conduit between all these parties, we help you avoid the miscommunication that increases well costs and ultimately reduces production.

Our Commitment to Quality

At Horizon we understand that having good people is only the first step towards high-quality service.  True quality assurance requires far more:

  • a defined, repeatable process for those people to follow;
  • a set of tools to assist them in knowing what the customer wants and performing to that level;
  • a system for supervising their work and checking the output of their process. 

We've put all of those elements into place to form the most accurate, reliable mud logging service you can buy.  We designed a process to ensure loggers do what is required for customer satisfaction.  Each logger is trained on that process so that they know what is expected of them every day.  We have field supervisors responsible for ensuring that the loggers perform up to expectations every day and for communicating with geologists to ensure they are satisfied.  And we have a formal quality control system where each log is checked for accuracy and correctness every day by independent inspectors. 

The result of this investment in quality assurance is that the geologist receives the information they need, on time, every day.

Where We Work

Horizon began in the mid-continent in 1988 and has become one of the largest mud logging companies in the country.  Our vision of field geological services, rendered by geological professionals, is changing the industry and improving our customers' productivity. We have 85 trailers and over 200 employees from New York to south Texas to North Dakota, all focused on ensuring each customer gets what they need, when they need it, every time. 

Our vision of professionalism is advanced by over 150 degreed geologists working across the country in four different divisions:

Horizon's geosteering methodology and approach were born out of our extensive experience on horizontal wells in the mid-continent.  We have expanded to the Marcellus Shale and Eagle Ford as horizontal drilling in those areas increased and we can provide highly professional geo-steering service nearly anywhere in the country.
