    Abstract: A concentration of at least one chemical reaction product in a drilling fluid is determined after the drilling fluid has interacted with a plasma discharge produced via one or more electrodes of a drill bit of a pulse power drill string disposed in a wellbore for drilling the borehole. The concentration of the at least one chemical reaction product is correlated to a relation between an arc and a spark of the plasma discharge. The relation between the arc and spark can subsequently be evaluated to determine updates to pulse power drilling parameters and/or to perform formation and drilling fluid evaluation.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for maintaining operation of gas sampling equipment utilized in oil and gas operations, wherein an isolation valve is deployed along a gas extraction conduit in order to isolate a gas analysis system from pressurized fluid that may be injected into the extraction conduit from a fluid delivery system. A parameter of the flow stream, such as a particular gas content or the presence of a bump gas, may be monitored. A change in the parameter may be indicative that debris is inhibiting fluid flow into the extraction conduit. When such a condition is suspected, gas sampling is suspended and the valve between the gas analysis system and the intake of the extraction conduit is closed. With the valve closed in order to protect the gas analysis system, a fluid is injected into the extraction conduit from the fluid delivery system.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for using downhole plasma discharge effects to determine porosity and/or permeability of formation material. In some embodiments, a method includes determining a concentration of at least one chemical reaction product in a drilling fluid that has interacted with a plasma discharge proximate formation material. A relation between arc and spark of the plasma discharge is determined based, at least in part, on the at least one chemical reaction product, and at least one of porosity and permeability of the formation material is determined based, at least in part, on the relation between arc and spark.

    Abstract: During pulse power drilling, the formation rock type is determined by analyzing organic and inorganic chemical reaction products. Plasma pulses interact with the solid rock of the formation to shift downhole chemical reactions. The formation type may act as a catalyst or an inhibitor to enhance or degrade reactions. The concentration of organic and inorganic chemical reaction products is determined by analyzing the reactions occurring at the drill bit. From the concentrations, the formation rock type is determined.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for formation characterization in a subterranean formation are disclosed. A set of microelectromechanical system (MEMS) devices may be disposed in a circulating fluid. Each MEMS device in the set may have a machine-scannable designator. A MEMS scanner may be configured to scan the designator of a MEMS device in response to circulation of the circulating fluid in a wellbore surrounded by the formation. A MEMS analysis subsystem communicatively coupled with the MEMS scanner may store the designator of each MEMS device in the set, detect a subset of MEMS devices by receiving the designators of MEMS devices from the MEMS scanner, and determine a characteristic of the formation based on the subset of MEMS devices.
