摘要:
The invention concerns an apparatus for analysing water chemistry. According to the invention, the apparatus is adapted to operate downhole and comprises a colouring agent supply device for supplying a colouring agent to a water sample, the colour of the water sample thus supplied being indicative of the water sample chemistry, and a colorimetric analyser arranged to determine the colour of the water sample.

A method for analyzing formation fluid in earth formation surrounding a borehole includes storing analytical reagent in a reagent container in a fluids analyzer in a formation tester and moving the formation tester, including the reagent, downhole. Reagent from the reagent container is injected into formation fluid in the flow-line to make a mixture of formation fluid and reagent. The mixture is moved through a spectral analyzer cell in the fluids analyzer to produce a time-series of optical density measurements at a plurality of wavelengths. A characteristic of formation fluid is determined by spectral analysis of the time-series of optical density measurements.

Methods of assuring that a representative formation and/or fluid sample of a subterranean reservoir is obtained are provided. One method of validating a reservoir fluid sample obtained from a wellbore includes the steps of acquiring a reservoir fluid sample in the wellbore; measuring a property of the fluid sample downhole with a technique to obtain a measured downhole fluid property; replicating the measuring technique used to obtain the measured downhole fluid property to obtain at a remote location from the wellbore with a technique to obtain at least one measured remote location fluid property; validating the fluid sample through comparison of the measured downhole fluid property and the at least one measured remote location fluid property.

摘要:
Tube waves are used to locate and characterize a solids deposit inside a fluid-filled pipe. An acoustic tube wave pulse is transmitted along the pipe. On encountering a solids deposit, the tube wave pulse is perturbed and partially reflected by changes in the boundary conditions between the fluid and the pipe to produce two deposit-modified acoustic waves. One is a perturbed wave travelling in the same direction as the tube wave pulse. The other is a reflected wave travelling in the opposite direction. One of these deposit-modified acoustic waves is received to produce an acoustic signal. Accumulated acoustic signals are processed by Fast-Fourier Transform to produce frequency-based digital data. Phase data from the frequency-based digital data is inverted to produce slowness spectrum data. Power data from the frequency-based digital data is inverted to produce attenuation spectrum data. Spectrum data is used to locate a solids deposit in the pipe. Inversion model processing of the spectrum data is used to estimate solids deposit thickness and type.
