Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards a method for obtaining and analyzing flux leakage data. Embodiments may include measuring, using a magnetic flux leakage tool, magnetic flux leakage data from a casing and determining sensor liftoff data from the flux leakage data. Embodiments may also include performing outward analytic continuation of the magnetic flux leakage data from a sensor plane to one or more additional planes and extrapolating back from the one or more additional planes to a surface. Embodiments may include applying a model-based parametric inversion to the magnetic field flux leakage data and determining, based upon, at least in part, the model-based parametric inversion, a shape and size of a corresponding corroded area associated with the casing.
