Mount Sopris MATRIX Loggers
The Mount Sopris MATRIX loggers are lightweight, portable digital geophysical logging systems engineered for reliability and performance. Capable of handling all standard measurements on both single-conductor and 4-conductor wirelines, the MATRIX loggers are compatible with most winches currently available on the market. Thanks to their robust design and exceptional versatility, they have become one of the leading choices for geophysical logging professionals worldwide.
Versatility and Compatibility
The Mount Sopris / ALT MATRIX Console is an advanced, adaptable uphole electronics package designed to operate seamlessly with both analog and digital borehole tools. For added convenience, the MATRIX console can be paired with the MSI MX Series winch, which offers cable capacities ranging from 500 to 1,000 meters of standard single-conductor wirelines. Its compatibility doesn’t end there—the console also integrates effortlessly with winches from other manufacturers, ensuring maximum flexibility for diverse field operations. For further details on available winches, please visit our Borehole Winches page.
