    摘要: A logging method and apparatus for investigating the geometrical characteristics of a borehole comprises an array of circumferentially spaced apart azimuthal current electrodes (Aaz.sub.i) disposed on a sonde (21), and an annular current electrode (A) longitudinally spaced apart from the array of azimuthal electrodes. In a method of investigating the geometrical characteristics of the borehole, currents (Ic.sub.i) are emitted between the azimuthal electrodes and the annular electrode (A). Monitor electrodes (M, Maz.sub.i) are respectively associated with the current electrodes (A, Aaz.sub.i). The potential differences (Vc.sub.i) between annular monitor electrodes (MAz.sub.i) are detected. In response to the detected potential differences, output signals (Rc.sub.i) are generated indicative of the distances between the sonde and the wall of the borehole in a plurality of directions around the sonde. The technique can be applied to azimuthal resistivity measurements of earth formations for correcting said measurements for sonde eccentring and/or the irregular shape of the section of the borehole.

    摘要: A technique that is usable with a well includes changing the temperature of a local environment of a distributed temperature sensor, which is deployed in a region of the well and using the sensor to acquire measurements of a temperature versus depth profile. The region contains at least two different well fluid layers, and the technique includes determining the depth of a boundary of at least one of the well fluid layers based at least in part on a response of the temperature versus depth profile to the changing of the temperature.

    摘要: The invention relates to a logging method and apparatus using passive azimuthal electrodes. The apparatus includes an array of azimuthal electrodes (M'az.sub.i) that are circumferentially spaced apart from one another on a body together with two annular guard electrodes (A2) disposed on either side of the array of azimuthal electrodes (M'az.sub.i). The guard electrodes (A2) emit currents. Two annular monitor electrodes (M3, M4) are associated with the annular guard electrodes (A2). The potential difference (.DELTA.Vaz.sub.i) between the interconnected monitor electrodes (M3, M4) and each of the azimuthal electrodes (M'az.sub.i) are detected. In response to the detected potential differences, output signals (R'az.sub.i) representative of the resistivity of the formations in a plurality of directions around the axis of the borehole are generated. The apparatus of the invention also relates to apparatus having two alternative modes of operation, one corresponding to a passive azimuthal electrode technique and the other corresponding to a technique in which currents (Iaz.sub.i) are emitted by the azimuthal electrodes.

    摘要: A technique that is usable with a well includes disposing a distributed temperature sensor in a conduit that traverses a region of the well. The region contains at least two different well fluid layers. The technique includes circulating a fluid through the conduit and using the distributed temperature sensor to observe at least one temperature versus depth profile of the fluid. Based on the observation, the depth of a boundary of at least one of the well fluid layers is determined.
