    Abstract: A method including positioning a downhole acquisition tool in a wellbore in a geological formation; performing a pretest sequence to gather at least one of pressure or mobility information based on downhole acquisition from a sample line, a guard line, or both while the downhole acquisition tool is within the wellbore. The pretest sequence includes controlling a valve assembly to a first valve configuration that may allow the fluid to flow into the downhole tool via one or more flowlines toward a pretest system. The one or more flowlines include the sample line only, the guard line only, or both the sample line and the guard line; and drawing in the fluid through the one or more flowlines. The method also includes controlling the valve assembly to a second valve configuration. The second valve configuration is different from the first valve configuration and may block the one or more flowlines from drawing in the fluid.

    Abstract: A tool to be used within a wellbore including a wall, the wellbore extending through a formation including formation fluid, includes a first packer and a second packer. The first packer includes a packer port to enable formation fluid flow through the first packer, with the second packer spaced from the first packer. The first packer and the second packer are expandable to abut the wellbore wall to form an interval within the wellbore between the first packer and the second packer, in which the tool further includes an interval port in fluid communication with the interval.

    Abstract: A downhole modular tool includes a first module, a second module, a third module, and one or more connectors for connecting the first, second, and third modules. Each module includes a drill collar, a drilling fluid passageway, a first fluid passageway, and a second fluid passageway. The one or more connectors connect any one of the first, second, and third modules, to another of the first, second, and third modules to transfer the drilling fluid, the first fluid, and the second fluid between the connected modules.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a separating a fluid having multiple phases during formation testing. For example, certain embodiments of the present disclosure relate to receiving contaminated formation fluid on a first flow line and separating a contamination (e.g., mud filtrate) from the formation fluid by diverting the relatively heavier and/or denser fluid (e.g., the mud filtrate) downward through a second flow line and diverting the relatively lighter and/or less dense fluid upward through a third flow line. In some embodiments, the third flow line is generally oriented upwards at a height that may facilitate the separation of the heavier fluid from the relatively lighter fluid based on gravity and/or pumps.
