His innovative approach has led to the development of a unique method and device that enhances the detection of cement annulus characteristics in boreholes.
Latest Patents
One of Ronald E McDaniel's key patents is the "Memory cement bond logging apparatus and method." This invention provides a method and device for detecting the characteristics of a cement annulus between a casing in a borehole and the surrounding earth formations during a slickline cement bond logging operation. The patent utilizes an acoustic logging tool that produces a pure signal downhole. The received acoustically transmitted energy generates electrical signals indicative of both the amplitude of the received energy and variable density log data. Both the amplitude data and the variable density log data are captured in memory downhole using a time amplitude matrix, which stores a limited number of data points for producing a cement bond log at the well surface. Ronald E McDaniel holds 1 patent.
