    摘要: A method includes deploying a logging tool in a borehole formed in a subsurface formation, the logging tool having a transmitter and a receiver, wherein a condition that is present during logging comprises at least one of a shape of the borehole is non-circular and the logging tool is off-center within the borehole. The method includes emitting, by the transmitter, a signal into subsurface formation and detecting, by the receiver, a response to the signal being propagated through the subsurface formation. The method includes creating, from the response, a borehole image that includes features in the subsurface formation and correcting the features, wherein correcting the features comprises mapping points of a non-circular shape in the borehole image into a plane substantially perpendicular to an axis of the borehole.

    摘要: The invention relates to measuring and generating electrical fields downhole. In one embodiment a system is provided that includes an amplifier connected to a first electrode in electrical contact with the Earth via an operative capacitive coupling. An additional electrode and amplifier are disposed in the borehole opposite the first electrode and constitute a first pair of electrodes spaced in a direction orthogonal to the axis. A second electrode is part of a group of counter electrodes spaced from each other and disposed outside the borehole. The first pair of electrodes and the amplifiers are configured to be one of a source that generates an electrical field in a direction substantially orthogonal to the axis of the borehole and a sensor that measures an electric field substantially orthogonal to the axis of the borehole.

    摘要: Methods of evaluating and/or selecting formation stabilization treatments for subterranean formations are provided. In some embodiments, the methods comprise: subjecting a test formation sample to stress loads, wherein sample comprises: two wafers of a formation material from a subterranean formation, and a plurality of proppant particulates between and in contact with the two wafers; measuring a conductivity of a test fluid through the test formation sample, wherein an eluted test fluid is collected after passing through the test formation sample; determining one or more damage properties of the test formation sample using computed tomography images; determining one or more properties of the eluted test fluid; and selecting a formation stabilization treatment for the subterranean formation based at least in part on the conductivity of the test fluid through the test formation sample, the damage properties of the test formation sample, and/or the properties of the eluted test fluid.
