Abstract
Systems and techniques are provided for determining a time zero echo of a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) sequence. An example method includes obtaining, via an NMR tool in a borehole, echo waveforms associated with refocusing pulses and a free induction decay (FID) waveform associated with an excitation pulse; determining echo values based on the echo waveforms and an apparent time-zero echo value based on the FID waveform, the apparent time-zero echo value representing a time zero echo; applying a correction factor to the apparent time-zero echo value to yield a corrected time zero echo value; and determining a spectrum associated with a sample based on an inversion performed on the corrected time zero echo values and the set of echo values before or after a conversion of the corrected time zero echo value and the set of echo values to porosity units, the conversion of the corrected time zero echo value and the set of echo values being based on one or more conversion factors.
