    Abstract: A method and a system for measuring downhole fluid properties. The downhole fluid sampling tool may comprise at least one probe and at least one passageway that passes through the at least one probe and into the downhole sampling tool. The method may comprise drawing a wellbore fluid through the at least one probe and through the at least one passageway, obtaining a first channel measurement of the wellbore fluid, obtaining at least a second channel measurement, clustering channel data from a plurality of channel measurements comprising the first channel measurement and the at least second channel measurement, and measuring a phase through a plurality of channels. The method may further comprise separating a plurality of phase signals based on the phase measured through the plurality of channels, labeling the wellbore fluid, assigning the plurality of phase signals to specific phases of a multi-phase fluid, and estimating a fluid property.

    Abstract: Encoding downhole data in nucleic acid molecules provides increased speed accuracy in the communication of downhole data to the surface. Nucleic acid molecules can be coded with downhole data using a telemetry module that comprises a microfluidic system to perform an encoding process that encodes carrier nucleic acid molecules with substitute sequences or segments at specific locations that comprise retrieved or acquired downhole data. The encoded carrier nucleic acid molecules are injected into a downhole fluid that is circulated to the surface. Once the encoded carrier nucleic acid molecules reach the surface, the information can be decoded and analyzed. Each carrier nucleic acid molecule may be preconfigured with a header. The header may comprise information that allows N for ease in coding and recombining downhole data.

    Abstract: A method and system for measuring drilling fluid filtrate. The method may comprise disposing a downhole fluid sampling tool into a wellbore at a first location, activating a pump to draw a solids-containing fluid disposed in the wellbore into the downhole fluid sampling tool, drawing the drilling fluid with the pump across the at least one filter to form a drilling fluid filtrate, drawing the drilling fluid filtrate with the pump through the channel to the at least one sensor section, and measuring the drilling fluid filtrate with the at least one sensor. A system may comprise a downhole fluid sampling tool. The downhole fluid sampling tool may comprise at least one multi-chamber section, at least one sensor section, at least one filter, a pump, and a channel.

    Abstract: A method and system for performing a pressure test. The method may comprise inserting a formation testing tool into a wellbore to a first location within the wellbore, identifying one or more tool parameters of the formation testing tool, performing a first pre-test with the pressure transducer when the pressure has stabilized to identify formation parameters, inputting the formation parameters and the one or more tool parameters into a forward model, changing the one or more tool parameters to a second set of tool parameters; performing a second pre-test with the second set of tool parameters; and comparing the first pre-test to the second pre-test. A system may comprise at least one probe, a pump disposed within the formation testing tool, at least one stabilizer, a pressure transducer disposed at least partially in the at least one fluid passageway, and an information handling system.

    Abstract: Systems and procedures for implementing radiometric calibration are disclosed. In some embodiments a radiometry system includes a light source that generates light. The radiometry system further includes a transmissive diffuser configured to receive the light and comprising a first translucent element having a surface and/or internal diffusion structure that substantially scatters the light. An optical detector is configured to receive and detect diffused light from the transmissive diffuser.
