Services › Quantum Leap™

1,000 bps. 200 ft. 99% uptime.

Quantum Leap™ is the wireless hop that crosses the gap between the RSS and the MWD without a wired sub. 1,000 bps peak (50× the closest competitor), 125 bps typical on partner rotary-steerable platforms, 200 ft hop length, and a 99% uptime record on Tier-1 wells.

The longest hop in the business — and the only one that listens to surface.

A wireless hop is a downhole transmitter-to-receiver link — one-way, node to node, no path back through the hop. Industry standard: 2–20 bps over sub-10 ft. We engineered Quantum Leap™ to 200 ft at 1,000 bps peak with 99% uptime, and added the one thing no competitor has — an EM receive antenna at the node that accepts Quantum Direct™ downlinks straight from surface.

1 · 200 ft. Longest hop in the industry.

Industry hops cover sub-10 ft. Quantum Leap™ runs to 200 ft node-to-node at 1,000 bps peak with 99% uptime. Same one-way transmitter-to-receiver architecture every hop uses — just engineered farther, faster, and more reliably.

2 · One-way at the hop layer. By physics.

Hops carry data from a transmitter node to a receiver node — one direction. The receiver hands data to the MWD, which is what telemeters to surface via MESH™. No hop in the industry talks to surface directly. Ours doesn’t either. That’s the architecture — not a marketing claim.

3 · EM downlink, received.

The dimension nobody else has. The Leap receiver accepts Quantum Direct™ EM downlinks from surface — commands to the BHA without changing flow, RPM, or pulling the string. Steering, tool control, and configuration changes on demand.

The hop is one-way. The command path from surface is separate. Leap is the only platform that has both.

Industry Hops

  • Sub-10 ft typical span
  • 2–20 bps (mid-range typical)
  • One-way, transmitter → receiver
  • Drops on reorientation
  • ~50% best-case uptime
  • No surface-command path — receiver only
Not Better

Sub-10 ft. 2–20 bps. One-way. Drops on reorientation. Stuck in 1990.

Quantum Leap™

  • 200 ft node-to-node
  • 1,000 bps peak / 125 bps typical
  • One-way at the hop layer (same as everyone)
  • Survives reorientation
  • 99% uptime across the run
  • Native EM-downlink receive from surface via Direct™
Better

200 ft. 1,000 bps. 99% uptime. Surface EM downlink received at the node.

Deployment

Who's running Leap.

Major service companies rent Quantum Leap™ on their rotary-steerable platforms — the kind of tech a competitor would normally try to build itself, but we already did. Partner string specialists license extended-flex variants of the Vanguard Isolator™ for their custom rig-ups.

Partner RSS Platforms

Active rental on the rotary-steerables built by some of the largest service companies. Quantum Leap™ clears the RSS-to-MWD gap at any standard spacing, full bandwidth, every run.

String-Spec Variants

Licensed 30-ft Vanguard Isolator™ variants with extended flex sections, built to partner string-specialist geometries.

Quantum Services™

Direct deployment as part of a full DTO services spread. Or standalone on operators running another MWD.

If the rental party builds it themselves, it's not a hop. Hops cross the gap. Leaps make it.
