A specialized radioactivity log of neutron-gamma log type. A neutron generator produces short bursts of high-energy neutrons (about 14 MeV), which are slowed in the borehole and nearby rocks to thermal energy level (about 0.025 eV); capture by nuclei (especially chlorine) results in gamma-ray emissions. The log is used in cased oil wells to determine changes in fluid saturation during oil production. 2, record 1, English, - pulsed%20neutron%20log

[La] diagraphie de neutrons pulsés [...] est appelée «Neutron Lifetime Log» (NLL) par Dresser-Atlas et «Thermal Decaytime Log» (TDT) par Schlumberger. Des neutrons très rapides (14 MeV) sont émis par impulsions de 20 à 30 microsecondes avec une récurrence de 1 000 impulsions par seconde. Les sondes sont de type cylindrique et leur position dans le sondage est indifférente. 1, record 1, French, - diagraphie%20de%20relaxation%20neutronique

Les diagraphies de relaxation neutroniques TDT ou NLL sont employées pour [...] suivre l'évolution des réservoirs durant la production; évaluer la porosité à travers le tubage; identifier les fluides, eau, gaz, huile. 1, record 1, French, - diagraphie%20de%20relaxation%20neutronique
