FRONT TANGENTIAL ANTENNA FOR NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE (NMR) WELL LOGGING

摘要

The magnet and antenna assemblies of a logging tool can be arranged according to geometries optimal for concentric or eccentric well logging operations. In an example configuration, a logging tool can include a magnet, a magnetic core made of a magnetically permeable material, and an antenna. The outward path of the antenna can be positioned along a surface of the magnetically permeable magnetic core that faces away from the magnet, and the return path of the antenna can also be positioned along a surface that faces away from the magnet.
