Abstract: A formation tester comprises a body having an outlet; a probe extendable from the body and having a sealing pad; and a flow line within the body, wherein the flow line has an entry end connectable to the probe and has an exit end connectable to the outlet in the body; and a reactive filter material in the flow line downstream of the entry end of the flow line, wherein the reactive filter material sorbs and entraps an analyte in a wellbore fluid.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein. The method generally includes generating frequency responses of one or more sample fluids having known fluid properties, selecting an equivalent circuit model for modeling the frequency responses, the equivalent circuit model including one or more model elements, calculating an equivalent impedance of the equivalent circuit model, generating a correlation between the one or more model elements and the known fluid properties, measuring an impedance of a drilling fluid, and determining at least one property of the drilling fluid based on the correlation between the one or more model elements and the known fluid properties.

Abstract: A device and method is described to parallelize a pressure-volume-temperature (“PVT”) analysis using gas chromatography and mass spectrometry techniques such that a portion of the pressure, temperature and volume analysis is performed separately from others. The resulting PVT data is then recombined statistically for a complete PVT analysis. The device may also obtain compositional data of the fluid to perform an equation of state analysis or reservoir simulations.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods of fabricating an integrated computational element for use in an optical computing device. One method includes providing a substrate that has a first surface and a second surface substantially opposite the first surface, depositing multiple optical thin films on the first and second surfaces of the substrate via a thin film deposition process, and thereby generating a multilayer film stack device, cleaving the substrate to produce at least two optical thin film stacks, and securing one or more of the at least two optical thin film stacks to a secondary optical element for use as an integrated computational element (ICE).

Abstract: The present application relates sensing reactive components in fluids by monitoring band gap changes to a material having interacted with the reactive components via physisorption and/or chemisorption. In some embodiments, the sensors of the present disclosure include the material as a reactive surface on a substrate. The band gap changes may be detected by measuring conductance changes and/or spectroscopic changes. In some instances, the sensing may occur downhole during one or more wellbore operations like drilling, hydraulic fracturing, and producing hydrocarbons.

Abstract: A centralizer apparatus for deployment in a subterranean wellbore, including a tubular adapted to be deployed in the subterranean wellbore such that a long axis of the tubular is parallel to a portion wellbore and a stack of fin modules stacked parallel to the long axis of the tubular. Each one of the fin modules includes a hub having an opening adapted to fit around the outer surface of the tubular, the hub including a stop structure configured to restrict the rotation of adjacent ones of the fin modules in the stack of fin module, and, one or more fin blades projecting from an outer surface of the hub. Rotating the tubular in one rotational direction aligns the fin modules into a screw-shaped state such that the one or more fin blades of adjacently stacked fin modules are progressively offset in a rotational direction perpendicular to the long axis of the tubular. Rotating the tubular in an opposite direction disperses the fin modules into a fanned-out state, such that the one or more fin blades of adjacently stacked fin modules are maximally offset as allowed by the stop structures.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of determining an unknown property or information of a reservoir fluid. The method includes measuring a set of responses of a measuring instrument to the fluid and measuring one or more physical or chemical properties of the fluid. The method further includes determining the unknown property or information of the fluid based on the relationship between the instrument responses and the measured properties of the fluid using equation-of-state (EOS) model.
