Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure relate to determining a borehole holdup. A method comprises logging a well with a pulsed-neutron logging (PNL) tool; receiving, via the PNL tool, transient decay measurements, capture spectrum measurements, and inelastic spectrum measurements; extracting information from each of the capture spectrum measurements, the inelastic spectrum measurements, and the transient decay measurements; inputting all of the extracted information as a single input into artificial neural networks; and determining the borehole holdup with the artificial neural networks.

Abstract: A downhole tool and method of utilizing the downhole tool to make measurements in a wellbore formed in a formation and having different wellbore diameters. The downhole tool generally includes a tool body defined along a longitudinal central axis and having an internal passage extending longitudinally therethrough and an external pocket extending therealong; a sensor module having a sensor and being deployed within the external pocket; a spacer deployed in the external pocket, the spacer positioned between the sensor module and the tool body; and a clamp attached to the tool body, the clamp overlaying both the sensor module and the spacer to confine the sensor module within the external pocket. The spacer may have an inner concave surface engaging the sensor module and an outer convex surface seating in the external pocket.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to determining holdup compensated formation saturation while refraining from calculating holdup. Inelastic gamma spectrum data for an inelastic gamma spectrum generated downhole in a wellbore can be accessed. Further, capture gamma spectrum data for one or more capture gamma spectrums generated downhole in the wellbore can be accessed. A model that accounts for holdup measurement can be applied to both the inelastic gamma spectrum data and the capture gamma spectrum data to identify a compensated oil saturation for a formation surrounding at least a portion of the wellbore based on both the inelastic gamma spectrum and the one or more capture gamma spectrums.

Abstract: A method for evaluating a sealing material positioned between a casing of a wellbore and a subsurface formation in which the wellbore is formed includes emitting an acoustic waveform outward from a position within the casing and detecting a return waveform that is generated in response to the acoustic waveform interacting with a region of interest that includes at least a portion of the sealing material. The method includes determining a first time window of the return waveform associated with the region of interest and trimming the return waveform based on the first time window. The method further includes determining a first spectral power density for the first time window of the trimmed return waveform and determining a composition ratio for the region of interest based on the first spectral power density.

Abstract: A method and system for determining a density. The method may comprise disposing a nuclear density tool into a wellbore, performing a spectral deconvolution, determining an energy channel for a first measurement layer, recording a count rate with the gamma detector for the first measurement layer, applying a slope operator to the count rate, and identifying a first density of the first measurement layer. The system may comprise a nuclear density tool that includes a gamma source and a gamma detector configured to record a count rate, wherein the gamma detector and the gamma source are disposed on a longitudinal axis of the nuclear density tool. The system may also comprise an information handling system.

Abstract: The techniques as described herein result in a single set of intrinsic carbon-oxygen (CO) measurements that can be used for various borehole and formation saturation conditions, enhancing the reliability and robustness of formation evaluation in oil and gas wells. A method comprises formulating an intrinsic CO ratio for a subterranean formation, based on theoretical atomic concentrations of carbon and oxygen, and porosity and fluid saturation parameters.

Abstract: This disclosure presents systems and processes to collect elemental composition of target fluid and solid material located downhole of a borehole. Waveguides can be utilized that include capillary optics to deliver emitted high energy into a container or a conduit and then to detect the high energy. A source waveguide can be used to emit the high energy into the target fluid and a detector waveguide can collect resulting measurements. Each waveguide can include a protective sheath and a pressure cap on the end of the capillary optics that are proximate the target fluid, to protect against abrasion and target fluid pressure. In other aspects, a pulsed neutron tool can be utilized in place of the waveguides to collect measurements. The collected measurements can be utilized to generate chemical signature results that can be utilized to determine the elemental composition of the target fluid or of the solid material.

Abstract: A system for drilling a wellbore into an earth formation includes a logging tool in the wellbore having at least one near-range measurement sensor, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive, at each depth along the wellbore, near-range measurement data and reference data related to a density of the formation, determine one or more near-range earth models that include a density model of a layer at each depth based on the near-range data constrained by the reference data, receive surface gravitational data from multiple surface locations, determine a mid-range or far-range formation model based on the near-range earth model and the surface gravitational data, and provide the mid-range or far-range formation model to a well driller for geosteering a drill bit into the earth formation.

Abstract: Through-tubing, cased-hole sealed material density can be evaluated using gamma ray measurements. Density evaluation comprises detecting, by at least one detector positioned within a casing of a wellbore including a sealing material positioned between the casing and a subsurface formation, electromagnetic radiation generated in response to nuclear radiation being emitted outward toward the subsurface formation, determining an electromagnetic radiation count based on the detected electromagnetic radiation, selecting at least one of a first reference material having a density that is less than a density of the sealing material and a second reference material having a density that is greater than the density of the sealing material, adjusting the electromagnetic radiation count based on the density of the at least one of the first reference material and the second reference material, and determining a density of the sealing material based on the adjusted electromagnetic radiation count.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a drilling parameter, a tool characterization parameter, and a formation model. The method includes generating a forward model of a tool response at a bed boundary using the one drilling parameter, the tool characterization parameter, and the formation model. The method includes predicting at least two azimuthal gamma logs using the forward model. The method includes determining that a difference between the at least two azimuthal gamma logs generates a confidence level that is greater than a confidence threshold. In response to determining that the difference between the at least two azimuthal gamma logs generates the confidence level that is greater than the confidence threshold, the method includes generating a well plan. The method includes outputting a command for controlling a trajectory in directionally drilling a wellbore within a formation associated with the formation model using the well plan.
