Abstract:
Described are systems, devices, and methods for processing Eddy-current response signals acquired in a set of multiple nested pipes, such as, e.g., nested casing strings within a completed wellbore. In various embodiments, time boundaries between time slots within the Eddy-current response signals are determined adaptively based on an input response signal specific to the nested pipes (e.g., one of the measured signals itself). Additional embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 18):
The system of  claim 16 , wherein the electromagnetic response signals are frequency-dependent, and wherein the processing facility is to determine the one or more frequency boundaries by:\n determining at least one estimated parameter for at least one of the pipes based on a portion of the at least one input response signal beginning at an initial value of the frequency boundary; iteratively\n (i) decreasing the frequency boundary to a decreased value, \n (ii) determining the at least one estimated parameter for the at least one pipe based on a portion of the at least one input response signal beginning at the decreased value of the frequency boundary, and \n (iii) computing a difference metric between the at least one estimated parameter as computed for the decreased frequency boundary and the at least one estimated parameter as computed for the immediately preceding iteration \n until the difference metric exceeds a specified threshold; and once the difference metric exceeds a specified threshold, setting the frequency boundary to a value that is substantially equal to the value of the frequency boundary in the immediately preceding iteration.
