    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure can include systems and methods for formation fluid sampling. In one embodiment, a method can include monitoring a relationship between a first characteristic of a formation fluid extracted from a formation and a second characteristic of the formation fluid extracted from the formation, determining, based at least in part on the monitoring, that a linear trend is exhibited by the relationship between the first characteristic of the formation fluid extracted from the formation and the second characteristic of the formation fluid extracted from the formation, and determining a reservoir fluid breakthrough based at least in part on the identification of the linear trend, wherein the reservoir fluid breakthrough is indicative of virgin reservoir fluid entering a sampling tool.

    Abstract: An example method of planning a sampling while drilling operation for a subterranean formation includes identifying a plurality of processes and related parameters, the processes including drilling and sampling processes and the related parameters including drilling and sampling parameters. The example method also involves processing the parameters for each of the processes via a simulation engine to generate predictions associated with sampling the formation, the simulation engine including at least one of a wellbore hydraulics simulator, a mudcake simulator, a formation flow simulator, or a tool response simulator. The example method also involves ranking the predictions associated with sampling the formation based on at least one of a sample fluid quality, a sampling process duration, a sampling process efficiency or a cost of sampling, and planning the sampling operation based on the ranked predictions.

    Abstract: Systems and methods provide a bottom hole assembly for a wellbore that includes a drill bit and multiple drilling tools. The multiple drilling tools include multiple sensors configured to capture a multiple instances of a common measurement type at multiple locations along a drill string. The multiple drilling tools also include processing circuitry configured to compare the multiple instances of the common measurement type to determine a difference among the multiple instances. The processing circuitry is also configured to determine that the difference is greater than a threshold corresponding to an inference of high frequency torsional oscillation. Furthermore, the processing circuitry is further configured to send an indication of an occurrence of high frequency torsional oscillation in the bottom hole assembly.

    Abstract: A method includes operating a downhole acquisition tool including a guard probe and a sample probe in a wellbore that contains a fluid that includes a native reservoir fluid and a contaminant. The method also includes receiving a first portion of fluid into the guard probe and a second portion of fluid into the sample probe, estimating a contamination level of the first or second portions based on a fluid property of the respective first and second portions, determining an initial guard flow rate of the first portion, determining an initial sample flow rate of the second portion, using a processor to adjust a guard flow rate of the second portion over pump time after the contamination level of the first portion is at or below a contamination level threshold, and adjust a sample flow rate of the first portion based on the adjusted guard flow rate and total flowrate.

    Abstract: A method of estimating extended reach for a downhole line traversing a deviated section of a well. The method may include storing line and well architectural and physical data and then performing a static analysis of substantially axial-exclusive estimated friction between the line and well wall during conveyance (which may be thought of as the contact force due to interference therebetween). A one dimensional dynamic analysis may then be performed. Thus, based on these factors, speed of the conveyance, vibration parameters of an incorporated vibration tool, etc., an efficient simulation of the conveyance may be run.
