  • Publication number: 20160047936
    Abstract: A method for obtaining formation measurements. The method includes deriving a pulse sequence and magnetizing a formation by applying a static magnetic field, via a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) system, to the formation. The method further includes applying the pulse sequence by: a) measuring a first spin echo train after waiting a first time period; b) measuring at least two spin echo trains subsequent to the first spin echo train, where the at least two spin echo trains include a wait time shorter than the first time period; and c) repeating b at least two times. The method additionally includes determining a T1 and a T2 based on inversions of the measuring the first spin echo train, the measuring the at least two spin echo trains, or a combination thereof, to determine a formation measurement.

  • Publication number: 20160047935
    Abstract: Systems and methods for evaluating a composition of a formation. A method includes obtaining a first set of well-logging data, via an NMR system, of a formation, and obtaining a second set of well-logging data, via a second well-logging system, of the formation. The method also includes determining from the first set and from the second set a model of the composition of the formation. This model of the composition of the formation may identify materials not directly identifiable by the first set of well-logging data alone or by the second set of well-logging data alone.

  • Patent number: 7684992
    Abstract: A data processing system (CAR), particularly a smart card coupled to a communication device (MOB), communicating with a remote entity (OP). The data processing system has a location for storing a file (F) which can be downloaded from said remote entity, A program (GS) of the data processing system performs the following steps: before performing data correction in the system, a checking step in which said program (GS) checks whether a file (F) has been downloaded, if such a file (F) is present, the program (GS) modifies the application (APP) on the basis of the data stored in the file (F).

  • Patent number: 7281665
    Abstract: A method for monitoring a subscriber's use of a service in a telecommunication network including a communication device configured to communicate through the telecommunication network with a server. The communication device may be coupled to a subscriber's smart card, such that the subscriber's smart card includes services configured to initiate or receive an action from the communication device. Further, the action may include at least one parameter identifying a first service, such that the method may include an interception step, in which a command associated with the first service is intercepted. Subsequently, the method may also include an extraction step, in which relevant data identifying the first service is extracted from the command. Following the extraction step, the method may also include a calculation step, in which the relevant data is analyzed to provide statistical information, which may be related to behavior of the subscriber's use of the first service.

  • Publication number: 20060068846
    Abstract: Method for billing use of a service in a telecommunication network comprising a communication device (MOB) communicating through a network with a machine (SERV), said communication device (MOB) being coupled to a smart card (CAR), said smart card including services able to initiate an action or to receive an action from said communication device (MOB), said action including at least one parameter identifying a service, characterized in that it comprises the following steps:- an interception step, in which a command initiating an action is intercepted;- an extraction step, in which relevant data (A1,A2) identifying a service is extracted from said command.
