Abstract

Methods for correcting a gradient distribution in downhole NMR logging are described herein. NMR data is inverted using an effective gradient to obtain an apparent Tdistribution having a first main peak and a distortion caused by a second spurious peak. The first main peak corresponds to the effective gradient. The distortion in the apparent Tdistribution is then corrected by integrating the signal corresponding to the spurious peak into the signal corresponding to the main peak. The corrected apparent Tdistribution and the effective gradient are then used to interpret the NMR data. Thereafter, the interpreted data is used to determine one or more characteristics of the surrounding subsurface rock formation media.
