DESKTOP HYPERSPECTRAL SPECTRA COLLECTION OF GEOLOGICAL MATERIAL

摘要

Presented are methods and systems for analyzing geological material from a well. A device for analyzing geological samples from a well includes: at least one light source configured to emit consistent plane polarized broad spectrum light towards the geological samples; a storage media configured to hold the geological samples; at least one hyperspectral camera configured to collect spectra reflected from at least one surface of the geological samples, wherein molecular vibrations are measured; a computing device configured to receive and process the collected reflected spectra; and the computing device configured to generate an output which includes at least a bulk material composition of the geological samples, wherein the device is configured to be portable to a well site.
