FIBERSCOPE Launches Tripod Meter Counter for Precise Well Inspections

During deep-well operations, operators struggle to balance manual cable handling, winch control, and video monitoring. Without a fixed reference point, cables often rub against casing rims or feed unevenly, leading to inaccurate depth reporting. The new tripod assembly mounts directly over the well opening, creating a defined entry path that tracks the deployed length of the cable as it passes through the device.

Terry, a sales specialist at FIBERSCOPE, notes that the hardware ensures the depth displayed on inspection reports matches the visual findings on the monitor. While the accessory is not required for shallow inspections where hand guidance suffices, it becomes essential in restricted sites where the winch cannot align perfectly with the casing. By standardizing the cable path, the tripod minimizes edge contact and allows technicians to provide clearer data for pump installers and service crews planning rehabilitation or cleaning work.
