ACO-NM hybrid optimization calculation method for transit time of oxygen activation logging in CO2 injection profile by WANG Zhengyan, CHEN Meng, YANG Guofeng, LIU Guoquan, PEI Yang, CHEN Qiang

“…However, activation spectrum peaks in CO2 injection often exhibit single-peak tailing and double-peak overlapping, influenced by statistical fluctuations in activated gamma-ray count rates, fluid properties, multi-layer string structure, and other factors. As a result, accurately determining the transit time of activation spectra and evaluating the amount of CO2 uptake in each small layer becomes challenging.To minimize errors in transit time calculation caused by overlapping peak separation and activation peak boundary selection, the morphological characteristics of activation peaks under varying influences were analyzed meticulously. …”
