Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include methods to perform an in-situ determination of a formation property of a downhole formation, methods to operate a tool to perform an in-situ determination of formation properties of a downhole formation, and in-situ formation property measurement tools. In one embodiment, a method to perform an in-situ determination of a formation property includes deploying a tool into a borehole that is drilled through a formation. The method also includes isolating a source zone from an injection zone. While the source zone is isolated from the injection zone, the method further includes withdrawing a fluid that partially fills the source zone; flowing the fluid into the injection zone; injecting the fluid into a first portion of the formation that is along the injection zone; and determining at least one formation property of the first portion based on an injection of the fluid into the first portion.

Abstract: This disclosure presents systems and processes to collect elemental composition of target fluid and solid material located downhole of a borehole. Waveguides can be utilized that include capillary optics to deliver emitted high energy into a container or a conduit and then to detect the high energy. A source waveguide can be used to emit the high energy into the target fluid and a detector waveguide can collect resulting measurements. Each waveguide can include a protective sheath and a pressure cap on the end of the capillary optics that are proximate the target fluid, to protect against abrasion and target fluid pressure. In other aspects, a pulsed neutron tool can be utilized in place of the waveguides to collect measurements. The collected measurements can be utilized to generate chemical signature results that can be utilized to determine the elemental composition of the target fluid or of the solid material.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems for capture and measurement of a target component. A fluid sampling tool for sampling fluid from a subterranean formation may include a sample chamber having a fluid inlet, wherein the sample chamber is lined with a coating of a material that can reversibly hold a target component.

Abstract: A method and system for performing a pressure test. The method may comprise inserting a formation testing tool into a wellbore to a first location within the wellbore, identifying one or more tool parameters of the formation testing tool, performing a first pre-test with the pressure transducer when the pressure has stabilized to identify formation parameters, inputting the formation parameters and the one or more tool parameters into a forward model, changing the one or more tool parameters to a second set of tool parameters; performing a second pre-test with the second set of tool parameters; and comparing the first pre-test to the second pre-test.
