More Information
Summary:A system for obtaining downhole azimuthal imaging information includes a pressure housing. The system also includes a source arranged within the pressure housing, the source including a directable electron beam. The system further includes an anode positioned proximate the source, within the pressure housing, the anode having a tapered face adapted to interact with the directable electron beam and direct an x-ray beam away from the anode. The system also includes a detector arranged proximate the anode, the anode being between the source and the detector, wherein the detector receives scattered x-rays, from the x-ray beam, the received scattered x-rays corresponding to imaging information to determine one or more properties of a wellbore.
