Abstract

See full text

Apparatus for determining the density of underground formations surrounding a borehole, such as a wireline logging tool or a logging-while-drilling tool, includes a high energy neutron source for irradiating the formations from within the borehole and a detector which detects gamma rays in the borehole resulting from the irradiation of the formations with high energy neutrons. The detected gamma rays are analyzed to determine the density of the formations.
