A computer-implemented method includes monitoring, by a computing device, data measurements associated with a bottom hole assembly (BHA), and detecting, by the computing device, a plurality of possible tight instances. An individual possible tight spot instance is detected based on a data measurement satisfying a threshold. The method also includes determining, by the computing device, information identifying respective probe depths of a plurality of probes incorporated by the BHA for the individual possible tight spot instance, storing, by the computing device and in a table, the information identifying the respective probe depths for each possible tight spot instance, generating, by the computing device, a profile identifying tight spot depths based on information stored in the table; and executing, by the computing device, a mitigating instruction based on the profile to mitigate the presence of the identified tight spot depths.

A mechanical gauge includes a stock panel with a first measurement scale, and a slide movably arranged relative to the stock panel. The first measurement scale has a series of marks spaced apart at regular intervals within a region of interest. The slide includes a second measurement scale adapted to selectively overlie the first measurement scale within the region of interest. The second measurement scale has a second series of marks spaced apart at regular intervals corresponding to the first series of marks of the first measurement scale. An elongated measurement probe is affixed to the slide and adapted for selectively extending into a groove formed in the tread of the vehicle tire.

A probe assembly for measuring a synthetic turf infill profile having a probe, a turf surface contact assembly and a sensor. The probe is configured to extend down through the turf infill profile until a tip of the probe contacts a lower boundary of the turf infill profile. The surface contact assembly is vertically movable relative to the probe while the probe is being moved downwardly into the turf infill profile, wherein the surface contact assembly has a contact area with the turf surface that is large enough to retain the surface contact assembly resting atop an upper boundary of the turf infill profile when the lowermost tip of the at least one probe has contacted the lower boundary of the turf infill profile. The sensor reads the distance between the upper and lower boundaries of the turf infill profile at a sampled location in the turf surface.

The subject disclosure relates to techniques for correcting logging depth of a well bore. A process of the disclosed technology can include receiving a first sensor measurement from a first sensor disposed in a wellbore, receiving a second sensor measurement from a second sensor disposed in the wellbore, wherein the first sensor and the second sensor are disposed on a wireline with a predetermined distance between the first sensor and the second sensor, generating a correlation function based on the first sensor measurement and the second measurement, and determining, based on the correlation function, whether the measurements indicate a perceived distance between the first sensor and the second sensor deviating from the predetermined distance.

An apparatus for checking the length (H) of a chamfer (7) delimited by a first surface (5) and by an edge (S), comprises two feelers (15, 25)—movably connected to a same supporting frame (20)—and respective transducers (16,26). The transducers supply signals (T1, T2) indicative of displacements of the respective feelers along mutually perpendicular directions (Y, X). A checking method includes moving the supporting frame at a constant speed so that, during the movement, one of the feelers scans the chamfer and the other cooperates with the first surface. The signals of the respective transducers are acquired and transmitted synchronously to a processing unit (40) which processes them together with information on the mutual position of the two feelers to obtain the length of the chamfer.
