摘要:
Pulse shaping is used for reducing the interference between echo trains of multiple frequency NMR logging applications in a gradient logging tool. The major contribution to the interference between different logging sequences comes from the sidelobes in the spectra of the excitation signal caused by modulating the RF signal with a square pulse. By shaping the tipping pulse in a CPMG pulse sequence, the interference between logging sequences at proximate frequencies is reduced. The shaped pulse may be a smooth function such as the Chebyshev function or it may be a composite of two rectangular pulses. In an alternate embodiment of the invention, the refocusing pulses are also shaped.

A novel nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) probe design for operating in a bore hole to obtaining the NMR characteristics of a region of interest adjacent the bore hole, characterized by a main RF antenna, a magnet, and a spoiler antenna. The spoiler antenna performs as an active shield for generating a resultant RF field that forcefully mismatches the static magnetic field inside the bore hole and substantially does not affects the RF field or antenna sensitivity in the region of interest.
摘要:
The static magnetic field of a permanent magnet used in an NMR tool moves with the tool. NMR measurements made with a moving tool are affected by incomplete polarization of the nuclear spins in the region where the Larmor frequency of static field matches the RF signal frequency. Simulation results show that the in-phase and quadrature components of spin echo signals are affected by the velocity of lateral motion of a logging tool in a borehole. A phase drift indicator is obtained by summing the quadrature and in-phase components over a window and taking the ratio of the windowed sums. The phase drift indicator shows an increase with time. In a tool with a gradient magnetic field, the phase drift indicator increases with time even for no tool motion. The reduction in magnitude of spin echo data due to tool motion alone may be obtained by comparing the magnitude of simulated echoes with and without tool motion.

A sensor for performing micro-conductivity measurements during well logging measurements in a borehole includes a magnetic core having a conductive insert wherein windings are driven with alternating current. Some embodiments include a sensor further having a conductive case. Various aspects of the sensor, such as dimensions and conductive properties of fabrication materials are selected to maximize performance of the sensor. Methods for using the sensor call for, among other things, placing the sensor in a well logging tool, and placing the tool in a well bore. A substantial focusing of the magnetic field on the wall of the borehole is achieved and provides for high quality data.

摘要:
A side-looking NMR logging tool incorporates a permanent magnet arrangement having a magnetization direction oriented towards a side of the tool and a dipole RF antenna displaced towards the front of the tool. The magnet arrangement produces a shaped region of investigation in front of the tool wherein the magnetic field has a uniform field strength and the RF field has a uniform field strength in a direction orthogonal to the static field. The shaping of the static field is accomplished by the magnet arrangement comprising a plurality of magnets having parallel magnetization or by a single shaped magnet. The antenna arrangement includes a gapped core made of non-ferritic soft material for increasing the antenna efficiency. The magnet arrangement also reduces ringing in the core and the antenna. An optional RF shield is used to reduce NMR signals from borehole fluids.

An apparatus and method of obtaining information about a property of interest relating to an earth formation resulting in reduced ringing effects is discussed. A Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) logging tool is conveyed into a borehole in the earth formation. A first pulse sequence is applied having a first associated measurement frequency, and first NMR signals are measured. The first NMR signals include non-formation signals resulting from an excitation pulse and a refocusing pulse in the first pulse echo sequence. A second and third pulse sequence, at different frequencies from each other and from the first frequency, is applied, and corresponding second and third NMR signals are measured. A phase of the non-formation signals resulting from the first pulse echo sequence and a phase of the non-formation signals resulting from the second and third pulse echo sequences are substantially evenly distributed around a unit circle.
