    摘要: A method for NMR measurements on borehole materials, e.g., sidewall cores, is based on performing a standard measurement in substantially homogeneous magnetic fields with a sensitivity volume covering an entire sample and a measurement on a fragment of the sample (local measurement), the fragment having a predetermined volume independent of the irregularities of the sample shape (e.g., irregular shaped edges). The fragment of the sample is selected using a switchable static magnetic field gradient or a localized radio-frequency magnetic field. The homogeneous and the local measurement data are processed jointly to obtain volume normalized NMR relaxation data (in porosity units), the processing also using a calibration sample data. A measurement apparatus with an automated sample transfer can be used to implement the method in order to perform high-throughput NMR relaxation measurements that do not require independent measurement of the sample volume.

    摘要: An apparatus (and method) for automated NMR relaxation measurements on borehole materials (e.g., drill cuttings, sidewall cores and whole cores) includes a sample cassette and a sample transfer system operating synchronized with the NMR experiment. The apparatus implements an automatic calibration, adaptive data stacking and automated measurements of the sample volume for irregular shaped samples. The measurements throughput may be increased by creating more than one excitation/detection volume during a measurement cycle. The NMR surface data may be interpreted together with other bulk sensitive measurement data (e.g. natural gamma ray spectroscopy) or/and downhole data to evaluate earth formations while drilling an oil well.

    摘要: A transient electromagnetic signal is recorded in an earth formation in the presence of a pipe having a finite conductivity. A portion of the signal dominated by the pipe signal is analyzed to determine a functional representation, extrapolated back to a time interval where the formation signal is present and subtracted from the recorded signal to provide a corrected signal.

    摘要: A combined electromagnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT) is disclosed adapted to generate both SH-type acoustic waves and LAMB-type acoustic waves in a conductive casing, surroundings of which are to be analyzed. The transducer comprises one magnet assembly and two RF coils implemented as multi-layer printed circuit board. Each coil is used to generate or receive acoustic signals of one wave type. Compared to using two single-wave-type transducers the combined EMAT significantly reduces total attraction force to the casing and, correspondingly, simplifies mechanics of the measurement tool. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract which will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.
