Abstract: A downhole logging device, a method of logging a wellbore, and a wellbore logging system are disclosed herein. In one example, the wellbore logging system includes surface equipment operable for monitoring logging operations in a wellbore based on downhole data measurements and a downhole logging device, coupled to the surface equipment through a downhole communications link. The downhole logging device includes one or more downhole tools having at least one data sensor each that captures the downhole data measurements from the wellbore, and a data compression unit that provides a data compression portion and a residual data portion of the downhole data measurements, wherein the data compression portion is provided, via the downhole communications link, to the surface equipment for the monitoring, and the residual data portion is stored downhole.

Abstract: A logging tool is positioned downhole in a wellbore, where the logging tool communicates with a computer on the Earth's surface over an analog signal path. Tool data is received from a sensor associated with the logging tool and encoded into a symbol signal. The symbol signal is transmitted to a receiver system via the analog signal path. The receiver system has one or more filters to filter the symbol signal. The one or more filters includes an equalizer filter indicative of an analog signal path response of the analog signal path. The filtered symbol signal is decoded into second tool data. The second tool data is encoded into second symbols and based on the second symbols, an updated analog signal path response of the analog signal path is generated to update the equalizer filter.

Abstract: In a logging system (100), multiple receiver units (106) are synchronized over a control area network (CAN) bus (110) without use of separate differential lines. A ready for synchronization command is received over the CAN bus (110). In response to receiving the ready for synchronization command, a start synchronization interrupt is enabled. A start synchronization command is then received over the CAN bus (110). In response to receiving the start synchronization command, the start synchronization interrupt is triggered for capturing formation signals which are produced responsive to excitation signals from a transmitter unit (104).
