Abstract
A logging instrument for estimating a property of a formation is provided. The instrument includes a magnet to generate a magnetic field. The instrument also includes pulse sequencer circuitry that supplies radio frequency (RF) signals. The instrument additionally includes an antenna system configured to transmit the RF signals and to obtain nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements of the formation in response to the transmitted RF signals. In one aspect, the logging tool contains a temperature sensor configured to obtain temperature measurements of the magnet. The instrument additionally includes a control unit communicatively coupled to the temperature sensor, the antenna system and the pulse sequencer circuitry and configured to receive the temperature measurements and selectively adjust operating parameters of the pulse sequencer circuitry based on the received temperature measurements in order to maintain optimal intensity of the magnetic field.
