I just received this today: Dear Sir: I am passing along some information on a technology that could possibly improve the output of oil stripper wells up to...
Hello to all First of all let me introduce Mr. Norris Holmes. He is the Owner of Holmes Wireline in Odessa Tx. They are a great company and Mr. Holmes has been...
A good reference on Calibration of Gamma tools is ASTM D 6274. "Standard Guide for Conducting Borehole Geophysical Logging - Gamma". The calibration part... 8...
I am well aware of the NORM problem associated with radioactive salts dissolved in produced water. But I have recently come across references to radioactive...
Syd, Many interesting examples are out there. It's one of the selling points of the original Dresser Spectralog and later developments in spectral gamma. The...
I understand about hot pay zones. What I am curious about is the oil itself. Have you ever heard of a gamma tool going nuts due to an oil filled casing...
Uranium can be extracted from oil by the injection of ammonia into the solution. I am no expert on this. This is what I learned from my experience working at...
Syd, Si!! Looking at this from the view of a very casual observer; Ore grade Uranium runs > .1 percent or >1000 ppm approximately. Typical Uranium spectra...
Steve, I have e-mailed Norris Holmes but have received no reply - if you are in contact with him could you see if he has received my reply/is interested? Many...
Chuck and all, As another casual observer with no data, I'd speculate that naturally radioactive oil would be rather common. Uranium and its daughter decay...
It is. Uranium itself has an affinity for carbon-bearing material. Which it why they used kerosene at the mill. Personally, I don't see the problem with...
I have never seen a word in the literature about radioactive oil being a factor in production logging. Since gamma ray logs are often run in fluid filled...
My on-line research - and yes, anyone can do the same research shows nothing on the subject that falls in the realm of naturally occuring radioactive oil. If ...

HELLO!I NOTICED YOUR CONVERSATION ABOUT RADIO-ACTIVE OIL/WATER. IN THE TULSA, OK. AREA AND KANSAS. I WAS RUNNING INJECTION PROFILES AND EACH YEAR THE ZONES...
Norris: Welcome to our little group! I have seen some hot injection zones in a few wells myself. I also always assumed it was slightly "hot" injection water...
The bit about the USGS pub is only one that I could find, and I found it at an internet book store. I know there's more than a couple dozen USGS pubs out...
Hello everyone, Does anyone have a manual on a Tracor Northern NS-623 8192 A-D nim module? Also in need of a cheap gamma downhole tool to experiment with as I...
Unless I missed something, it looks like you sent the daily digest to the list without even adding anything. Judging from the subject line, perhaps you were...
Syd, I is not the oil that is radioactive so much as the dissolved U in the formation. U exists along the re-dux boundry of formations. U easly moves along...
I understand that the KUT components are in rock in various amounts. That is of course what makes the Gamma Ray log useful as a lithology indicator. But I...
Anybody know anything about these old Hybrid IC's, or have any for sale? 011-1303-000 Gearhart or 707.14335 HLS Thanks. Syd H. Levine AnaLog Services, Inc. ...
A really cheap gamma tool would still be in the $1,000.00 price range, and that would likely be an old nuvistor G-M detector tool. I have lots of non-working...
Syd I need to know what it is in and possibly I can help I still have a few contacts @ Halliburton Ron Hattox Armadillo Wireline Electronics ... ===== Ron...
Actually, I was asking for an overseas Halliburton guy as a favor. ... From: "Ron Hattox" <hattox@...> To: <wireline@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Thursday,...
I think that was the old Redco stuff. I believe it is all gone, but he watches this list. Syd ... From: Steve Wilson To: wireline@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
Syd, come on! It's common sense, brother! You said "Why would any sane person want to leave this delightful list?", and that answers it- He's INSANE!!! Poor...
