PULSE NEUTRON NEUTRON TOOL 1400.0000
measures Sigma, the ability of material to
capture thermal Neutrons, in capture units (c.u.).

PNN counts directly the thermal neutrons reaching the detectors after their
interaction with the surrounding formation; then, the usual inference by common
Thermal decay tools that count Gamma Rays where High-counts means high-
Sigma-Values changes by the PNN tool into High-counts means Low-Sigma-
Values, and it has the significance of obtaining statistical uncertainties reduction
for low Sigma values. This sole measuring approach allows better differentiation
in environments of low Sigma values, which is the case when fresh water, oil
and/or gas are present in the pore spaces, overcoming by this way, the low
salinity formation water problem which appears as a limitation factor of standard
Thermal Decay Time tools; additionally, Neutron readings are less affected by
Neutron activation, hence, logging of Time-driven Stop-Checks in area of interest
helps reduce the statistical uncertainties of readings at any desired depth spot. All
of this makes pnnPlus tool, in conjunction with our PNN processing and analysis,
a competitive behind-casing formation evaluation tool for high to moderate water
salinity formations and the ultimate thermal decay tool for evaluation of lower
salinity and lower porosity formations.

Application

Water saturation behind casing, porosity, remaining Hydrocarbon reserves


estimation, Oil-water, gas-water and gas-oil contacts location, etc

Operation

The formation is bombarded with pulses of high-energy neutrons (14 MeV)


generated by the tool. Neutrons interact
with the surrounding atoms and, during the lapse of time between high-energy
neutron pulses, the thermal neutron
population that reaches the Neutron detectors is sampled by two detectors with
60 time channels each; Per Channel
Neutrons counted are used to compute the rate of decay, it is equivalent to
measuring the rate at which thermal neutrons
are absorbed into the formation, the greater fluids and minerals capture thermal
neutrons, the higher the value of Sigma.
