A heat-loss pressure microsensor for measuring a gas pressure is disclosed that includes a plurality of pressure gauges arranged proximate to one another on a substrate. The gauges may include a pair of gauges, each gauge including a thermistor having an electrical resistance that varies with its temperature, the thermistor's temperature being responsive to the gas pressure, a platform to receive the thermistor, and a support structure to hold the platform above the substrate. Each gauge may be configured to produce a gauge output signal related to the electrical resistance of its thermistor. The two gauges are configured with their platforms having equal nominal perimeters and different nominal surface areas, and their support structures having the same nominal geometry. A differential signal may be obtained from the two gauge output signals. The differential signal conveys information about the gas pressure and exhibits reduced sensitivity to fabrication-related dimensional variations.

A method comprises measuring a first external pressure within an annulus formed between a wellbore and a drill string disposed therein, where the first external pressure is measured by a first external pressure sensor. A fluid is pumped through the drill string into the annulus so as to move any cuttings in the annulus above the first external pressure sensor. A first internal pressure is measured within the drill string by a first internal pressure sensor. The first external pressure sensor is disposed between the first internal pressure sensor and a bottom of the wellbore.
