    Abstract: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) method, system, and sensing device for downhole measurements. The NMR device for characterizing a subterranean zone includes a tool body, a magnetic element, and a radio frequency coil. The tool body includes an uphole end and a downhole end, where a longitudinal axis extends through the uphole end and downhole end. The magnetic element is located within the tool body and generates a static magnetic field (B0) in a longitudinal direction at a region of the subterranean zone. The radio frequency coil is located within the tool body and generates a radio frequency magnetic field (B1). The magnetic element and the radio frequency coil enable a side-looking NMR mode.

    Abstract: A logging instrument for estimating a property of a formation is provided. The instrument includes a magnet to generate a magnetic field. The instrument also includes pulse sequencer circuitry that supplies radio frequency (RF) signals. The instrument additionally includes an antenna system configured to transmit the RF signals and to obtain nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements of the formation in response to the transmitted RF signals. In one aspect, the logging tool contains a temperature sensor configured to obtain temperature measurements of the magnet. The instrument additionally includes a control unit communicatively coupled to the temperature sensor, the antenna system and the pulse sequencer circuitry and configured to receive the temperature measurements and selectively adjust operating parameters of the pulse sequencer circuitry based on the received temperature measurements in order to maintain optimal intensity of the magnetic field.

    Abstract: In some aspects, a downhole nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) tool includes a magnet assembly and an antenna assembly. The NMR tool can operate in a wellbore in a subterranean region to obtain NMR data from the subterranean region. The magnet assembly produces a magnetic field in a volume about the wellbore. The antenna assembly produces excitation in the volume and acquires an azimuthally-selective response from the volume based on the excitation. The antenna assembly can include a transversal-dipole antenna and a monopole antenna.

    Abstract: In some aspects, a downhole nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) tool includes a magnet assembly and an antenna assembly. The NMR tool can operate in a wellbore in a subterranean region to obtain NMR data from the subterranean region. The magnet assembly produces a magnetic field in a volume about the wellbore. The magnet assembly includes a central magnet, a first end piece magnet spaced apart from a first axial end of the central magnet, and a second end piece magnet spaced apart from a second axial end of the central magnet. The antenna assembly includes a transversal-dipole antenna. In some cases, orthogonal transversal-dipole antennas produce circular-polarized excitation in the volume about the wellbore, and acquire a response from the volume by quadrature coil detection.
