Abstract: System and methods for measuring properties within a subterranean well include a ring assembly. The ring assembly includes a structural ring sized with a ring inner diameter to circumscribe a tubular string and a ring outer diameter to fit within a bore of the subterranean well. A measurement tool is integrated with the structural ring. Wheels are spaced around an inner diameter surface of the structural ring.

Abstract: An electromagnetic energy transmitter is provided for induced polarization logging with a borehole to surface electromagnetic (BSEM) transmitter. The transmitter is lowered into a well borehole to a desired location in a well borehole to emit electromagnetic energy for the surveys. The transmitter affords more accurate measurements of its position in the well borehole. The transmitter also senses pressure and temperature conditions at its borehole location to provide indications of detected potential problems in the well from the survey or other sources, and to reduce risks and enhance safety and quality of the operations.

Abstract: Errors produced in a borehole to surface electromagnetic (BSEM) survey by near surface electrical anomalies on the estimates of formation properties are reduced. The effects of variations in subsurface electrical resistivity near the surface are separated from electrical resistivity changes at locations in the formations of interest far from the measurement region. A survey system includes one or more electrodes to inject electrical current at formation depth within a borehole, one or more counter electrodes which collect such current on the surface of the earth, and one or more electrodes to inject current on the surface. A transmitter is selectively connectable to different sets of the electrodes to cause a current to flow between the selected electrode sets. The resultant fields from the current flow are sensed and processed. The effects of near surface anomalies are detectable in the data and removable from the survey data of interest regarding the formations. The survey data more accurately indicates formation features or properties of interest.

Abstract: An electromagnetic energy transmitter is provided for induced polarization mapping with a borehole to surface electromagnetic (BSEM) transmitter. The transmitter is lowered into a well borehole to a desired location in a well borehole to emit electromagnetic energy. An array of receivers spaced over an area of the earth surface senses the induced polarization response to the emitted electromagnetic energy in areas of interest for mapping. Maps are formed of the induced polarization responses sensed by the array of receivers.
