Title: Michael Jason Englar: Innovator in Acoustic and Spectral Density Technologies
Introduction
Michael Jason Englar is an accomplished inventor based in New Orleans, LA. He has made significant contributions to the field of wellbore evaluation through his innovative patent. Englar's work focuses on enhancing the methods used to assess materials surrounding well casings, which is crucial for the oil and gas industry.
Latest Patents
Englar holds a patent for a "Rotating spectral density tool for behind pipe evaluation." This method involves introducing a tool string into a wellbore that contains material in an annular region surrounding the casing. The process includes obtaining acoustic refracted waveform measurements from a cement bond logging tool, ultrasonic measurements from a circumferential acoustic scanning tool, and gamma radiation measurements from a circumferential spectral density logging tool. The tool emits gamma radiation from a radioactive source in a rotating portion and detects scattered gamma radiation using near and far spectral density detectors. Additionally, thermal neutron radiation measurements are obtained from a dual spaced neutron logging tool. A computer processes these measurements to generate deliverables that include cross plots identifying the compositional equivalent of the material around the entire circumference of the wellbore. Englar's patent represents a significant advancement in the evaluation of wellbore integrity.
