Abstract:
Various embodiments include a method for configuring and generating a non-adiabatic saturation pulse for use in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) logging. One such method configures the pulse by adjusting one or more of pulse amplitude modulation or phase cycling. The modified pulse is transmitted into a fluid such that a substantially uniform nuclear spin saturation or nuclear spin inversion echo response is received from the fluid. A wait time between the pulse transmission and the echo response that indicates that spin equilibrium has been achieved is substantially equal to a T 1  time. The wait time is an indication of the characteristics of the fluid.

Claim (Index 19):
The non-transitory computer-readable medium of  claim 15 , wherein the instructions further cause the computer to:\n select a non-adiabatic pulse and readout sequence from a plurality of non-adiabatic pulses and read out sequences; determine results for Bloch's equations for the selected non-adiabatic pulse and readout sequence; determine a first proportionality between a peak amplitude of the selected readout sequence and a peak amplitude of the selected non-adiabatic pulse; generate activations for T 1  and T 2  measurements based on the results of the Bloch's equations; determine an RF amplitude for a readout pulse of the readout sequence; and multiply the first proportionality by a second proportionality determined theoretically to generate a resultant RF amplitude for the non-adiabatic pulse.
