Abstract:
A method for evaluating a formation includes determining a number of detected gamma rays resulting from imparting neutrons into a formation. The detected gamma rays are each characterized by an energy level thereof. The gamma rays are detected at a first distance from a position of imparting the neutrons into the formation. Those of the detected gamma rays attributable to neutron capture by hydrogen nuclei are removed from the number of detected gamma rays. The number of detected gamma rays having hydrogen neutron capture gamma rays removed therefrom are used to calculate a property of the formation.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for evaluating a formation, comprising:\n entering into a computer a number of detected capture gamma rays resulting from imparting neutrons into a formation, the detected capture gamma rays each characterized by an energy level thereof, the detected capture gamma rays detected at a distance from a position of imparting the neutrons into the formation; in the computer, removing from the number of detected capture gamma rays those of the detected capture gamma rays attributable to neutron capture by hydrogen nuclei; in the computer, normalizing the number of detected capture gamma rays having hydrogen neutron capture gamma rays removed with a reference to actually imparted neutron; in the computer using the normalized number of detected capture gamma rays having hydrogen neutron capture gamma rays removed therefrom to calculate a neutron porosity of the formation.
