Abstract
The subject technology relates to a process by which data from two downhole loggers (e.g., acoustic transducers), one at each end of a pipeline, can be used to improve the resolution of a pressure pulse system, even for slow valve operating times. For example, the process of the subject technology uses data from two transducers (e.g., acoustic transducers), instead of one transducer typically employed in traditional approaches, thereby leading to increased resolution of the deposit location and thickness. By improving the deposition estimation resolution, locating smaller deposits in a pipeline more accurately can be realized. The improved resolution in deposition estimation computations supports better decision making by providing more detailed measurement and quantification data for use in resolution of deposition buildup.
