Abstract: A downhole galvanic logging system including a first transmitter electrode configured to convey an exciter current into a formation and a second transmitter electrode configured to receive a return current from the formation. A first transmission line being coupled to the first transmitter electrode and configured to carry the exciter current, and a second transmission line being coupled to the second transmitter electrode and configured to carry the return current. The transmission lines can be arranged in a twisted pattern. A receiver device is positioned between the transmitter electrodes along an axial length of the downhole galvanic logging system. The receiver device can be configured to detect an electrical signal that is proportional to a resistivity of the formation. The second transmitter electrode can be coupled to one end of the receiver device with the second transmission line coupled to the second transmitter electrode through the receiver device.

Abstract: Electromagnetic (EM) measurement systems and methods for a downhole environment are described herein. An example system includes an optical fiber, an EM source to emit an EM field, and a magnetic induction sensor. The magnetic induction sensor comprises a coil and an electro-optical transducer coupled to the coil and the optical fiber. The electro-optical transducer generates a light beam or modulates a source light beam in the optical fiber in accordance with a voltage induced in the coil by the EM field. An example method includes positioning an optical fiber and magnetic induction sensor in the downhole environment, the magnetic induction sensor having a coil and an electro-optical transducer coupled to the coil and the optical fiber. The method also includes emitting an EM field and generating a light beam or modulating a source light beam, by the electro-optical transducer, in the optical fiber in accordance with a voltage induced in the coil by the EM field.

Abstract: Methods and systems of electromagnetic sensing in a wellbore are presented in this disclosure for monitoring annulus fluids and water floods. An array of transmitters and one or more receivers are located along a casing in the wellbore. A transmitter in the array and one of the receivers can be mounted on a same collar on the casing forming a transmitter-receiver pair. The receiver can receive a signal originating from the transmitter and at least one other signal originating from at least one other transmitter in the array, wherein the signal is indicative of a fluid in the wellbore in a vicinity of the transmitter-receiver pair and the at least one other signal is indicative of another fluid in a formation around the wellbore. The receiver can further communicate, via a waveguide, the signal and the at least one other signal to a processor for signal interpretation.

Abstract: An optical cable can include one or more graphenic elements disposed about one or more optically transmissive fibers. A graphenic element can be a coating of graphene or amorphous graphite, a ribbon of graphene or amorphous graphite, or fibers of graphene or amorphous graphite. The graphenic element provides a path for electrical conduction while the optically transmissive fiber provides a path for optical transmission. An optical cable as disclosed herein can include a plurality of electrical and optical paths with a much smaller diameter and weight than traditional cables.

Abstract: A magnetic field sensor unit for a downhole environment includes an optical fiber, a magnetic field sensor, and an optical transducer. The sensor unit also includes a sealed housing that encloses the magnetic field sensor and the optical transducer. The optical transducer is configured to generate a light beam or to modulate a source light beam in the optical fiber in response to a magnetic field sensed by the magnetic field sensor. Related magnetic field measurement methods and systems deploy one or more of such magnetic field sensor units in a downhole environment to obtain magnetic field measurements due to an emitted electromagnetic field.

Abstract: Various disclosed distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) based systems and methods include embodiments that process the DAS measurements to detect one or more contrasts in acoustic signatures associated with one or more fluids flowing along a tubing string, and determine positions of the one or more contrasts as a function of time. The detected contrasts may be changes in acoustic signatures arising from one or more of: turbulence, frictional noise, acoustic attenuation, acoustic coupling, resonance frequency, resonance damping, and active noise generation by entrained materials. At least some of the contrasts correspond to interfaces between different fluids such as those that might be pumped during a cementing operation. Certain other method embodiments include acquiring DAS measurements along a borehole, processing the measurements to detect one or more acoustic signature contrasts associated with interfaces between different fluids in the borehole, and responsively displaying a position of at least one of said interfaces.
