Description

A downhole data system for spectral gamma ray detectors has been developed and deployed in boreholes at the US DOE Hanford Site in southeastern Washington State. This system consists of a digital multichannel analyzer, power supply, and high-voltage power supply located in the borehole probe. Communication up the cable to a computer at the surface is digital, meaning that issues related to analog pulse transmission over the logging cable are eliminated. This system can support either scintillator or solid-state detectors. (authors)
