Abstract
La surveillance de rayons gamma diffusés est utilisée pour déterminer les substances entre les tubes coaxiaux (412) disposés dans un puits de forage souterrain (402). Les rayons gamma sont dirigés de façon stratégique à partir du tube le plus interne (412) dans la chambre annulaire (422), certains des rayons gamma diffusés à partir de la substance entre les tubes (412), et ils sont détectés à laide de détecteurs placés à une distance axiale désignée de la source de rayons gamma (428). Les rayons gamma se dispersent également du fluide dans le tube (412), une proportion de rayons gamma détectés qui se dispersent du fluide dans le tube (412) et de la substance peuvent servir à déterminer la substance.
