Abstract

See full text

Method and apparatus for downhole chromatography. A tool housing includes a chromatograph and a formation tester for extracting a fluid sample from a formation adjacent the wall of an uncased well bore. When such a sample is extracted it is directed into the chromatograph which analyzes the same and transmits the information to the surface. Thereafter, solvent from a reservoir in the housing is used to purge the chromatograph to enable the tool to be relocated to a different level for additional formation fluid analysis.
