A continuous gravimetry survey is carried out with a gravity logging tool having a column of fluid within the tool. First and second pressure sensors are located at spaced-apart axial positions within an upper portion of the fluid column. Third and fourth pressure sensors are located at spaced-apart axial positions within a lower portion of the fluid column. The outputs from the first and second pressure sensors are differenced to produce a first pressure difference signal. The outputs of the third and fourth pressure sensors are also differenced to produce a second pressure difference signal. The difference between these first and second pressure difference signals is related to the gravity gradient along the earth formation adjacent the fluid column. Such a gravity gradient is a continuously moving gradient that is insensitive to acceleration effects from unsteady motions of the logging tool as it traverses the earth formation during the gravimetry survey. |
