Abstract
Abstract The oil and gas industry subsurface formation evaluation instruments experience significant challenging vibrations and shock levels. Equipment development requirements for these instruments include reliability and durability under these severe operating conditions. The engineering design for this equipment utilizes tools that enable the estimation of service lifetime, maintenance cycles, and related costs. These engineering tools model failure modes and their acceleration factors and how failures interact under certain circumstances. Laboratory test data and operations failure history are used to validate the model results. Incorporating equipment operational failure history into the reliability design after failure analysis, enables determination of failure modes and the length of stress level exposure. Before the equipment is commissioned to field operational service, it is subjected to a batch of environmental qualification tests under objective pass-fail criteria. The environmental qualificat...
