Abstract: A downhole tool to make one or more downhole measurements of laser-induced vaporization and/or pyrolysis of hydrocarbons is provided and disposed at a desired location within a wellbore. A tool head of the downhole tool is brought into sealing engagement with the wellbore wall. The fluid within an interior region enclosed by the tool head and the wellbore wall is evacuated and a measurement spot is irradiated with a laser to generate volatile hydrocarbons and/or pyrolytic hydrocarbons. Measurements are made on the volatile hydrocarbons and/or pyrolytic hydrocarbons and one or more formation properties are inferred based on the measurements. A low level of laser radiation intensity, irradiating some or all of the wellbore wall enclosing the interior region, may be used to prevent measurement contamination, and both medium power and high power levels of laser radiation may be used to first vaporize and then pyrolyze the hydrocarbons.

Abstract: An acoustic logging tool is disposed in a wellbore during an acidizing operation. Measurements are made using the acoustic logging tool on a region of a formation penetrated by the wellbore and being subjected to the acidizing operation. An acoustic anisotropic property of the formation is inferred at one or more depths of investigation within the region using the measurements, and a wormhole porosity and/or an orientation of one or more wormholes resulting from the acidizing operation is determined. Acidizing operation management decisions may be made based on the determined wormhole porosity and/or orientations of the wormholes. An acidizing operation management decision may be to maintain, increase, or decrease an acid injection rate. Measurements made may include the velocity of an acoustic wave propagating through the formation and the acoustic anisotropic properties of fast waves and slow waves. The acoustic anisotropic properties of the formation generally depend on rock stiffness.

Abstract: Wireless communication and electromagnetic telemetry between various surface or downhole devices may be provided using two or more dipole antennas. The dipole antennas may be formed, for example, by electrically isolating, for each electric dipole antenna, two electrically conductive portions. The two electrically conductive portions are part of a downhole casing, a downhole liner, a completion, a production tube, or a downhole tool. The two or more electric dipole antennas are disposed in different sections of a completed well, in one or more lateral wells, in different completed wells, or in any combination of those. An electromagnetic signal is transmitting from at least one of the two or more dipole antennas and received at any other of the two or more dipole antennas, thereby providing telemetry or wireless communication between the dipole antennas of the petrophysical devices.

Abstract: A downhole densitometer is used to determine one or more characteristics of a flowing fluid. The densitometer has one or more downhole x-ray sources and one or more downhole x-ray detectors. A fluid is allowed to flow past the x-ray sources. X-rays emitted by the x-ray sources and that have travelled through the flowing fluid are detected by the x-ray detectors. Characteristics of the flowing fluid are determined based on the detected x-rays. The densitometer may also have reference detectors used to measure a reference signal. The measured reference signal is used to normalize source emissions. The densitometer may be used as a permanent monitor and it may be used in conjunction with other sensors such as a flow-rate sensor or a capacitance sensor. The x-ray source may be, for example, a pyroelectric source, a radioisotopic source, or a traditional x-ray tube source.

Abstract: A system having an NMR measurement device make measurements on a region of investigation in which an NMR-active fluid has been injected. A source of the NMR-active fluid (e.g., methane) is provided, and the pressure of the region of investigation may be monitored. A sealing apparatus serves to isolate the region of investigation. A parameter is estimating using the obtained measurement. The parameter estimated may include the inter-granular porosity, intra-kerogen porosity, kerogen maturity, free gas volume, and/or adsorbed gas volume. A baseline measurement may be made prior to injecting the NMR-active fluid, and the region of investigation may be evacuated before injecting the NMR-active fluid. The obtained T2 distribution can be resolved and each peak attributed to different constituent sources of the signal. The system can be conveyed into a wellbore using a drillstring, a wireline, a slickline, or a coil tubing.

Abstract: A permanent monitoring tool is provided and disposed in a wellbore. Measurements are made at different times using the permanent monitoring tool on a region of a formation penetrated by the wellbore. One or more properties of the formation are inferred at one or more depths of investigation within the region using the measurements. Any changes in the one or more inferred formation properties are determined and one or more reservoir management decisions are made based on the determined changes. The well may be an observation well, an injector well, or a production well. The permanent monitoring tool may be a magnetic resonance tool or an electromagnetic tool. The measurements may be stacked to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the signal. Different depths of investigation may be selected using antenna arrays of different lengths. The inferred properties may be saturation or resistivity. Conductive or non-conductive casing may be used.

Abstract: A NMR logging tool is provided and disposed at some desired depth in a wellbore penetrating a subsurface formation. A first set of NMR measurements is made over a desired depth range and depth of investigation, wherein the first set of NMR measurements includes a first NMR signal intensity. Supercritical carbon dioxide is injected into the formation and a second set of NMR measurements is made over the desired depth range and depth of investigation, wherein the second set of NMR measurements includes a second NMR signal intensity. The first NMR signal intensity is compared to the second NMR signal intensity and one or more properties of the formation are inferred using the compared NMR measurements. A magnetic field gradient that varies a static magnetic field along a desired spatial dimension of a region of investigation may be provided to map a rate of fluid movement.
