Method for the inversion of CPMG measurements enhanced by often repeated short wait time measurements

A method for determining an earth formation property from nuclear magnetic resonance measurements, comprising:

• (a) acquiring at least one standard spin echo measurement set and at least one burst measurement set on an earth formation sample;
• (b) applying suppression functions to spin echoes in at least one burst measurement set to produce a modified burst data set, the suppression functions to suppress contribution of spin echoes having non-negligible polarization correction;
• and
• (c) computing the earth formation property from the at least one standard spin echo measurement set and the modified burst data set.

A method for determining a property of earth formations surrounding a wellbore, comprising:

• (a) inducing a static magnetic field in an area of investigation in the earth formations;
• (b) acquiring at least one standard spin echo measurement set and at least one burst measurement set by applying spin echo pulse sequences comprising radio frequency magnetic field pulses in the area of investigation and receiving spin echo signal magnitudes;
• (c) applying suppression functions to spin echoes in at least one burst measurement set to produce a modified burst data set, the suppression functions to suppress contribution of spin echoes having non-negligible polarization correction;
• and
• (d) computing the property of the earth formations from the at least one standard spin echo measurement set and the modified burst data set.
