US Patent 11181659 Pipe thickness inversion using a fast forward model

A method and a system for estimating a pipe property for a plurality of nested pipes. The method may comprise determining the pipe property from the plurality of measurements, wherein the pipe property identifies a feature in the wellbore, forming a pre-computed table of responses for the at least one channel comprising a plurality of points that sample the pipe property, and performing a model-based inversion to estimate the pipe property using the plurality of measurements, the nominal properties of the pipes, and a fast forward model based on the pre-computed table of responses. A system may comprise an electromagnetic logging tool and an information handling system. The electromagnetic logging tool may comprise a transmitter, wherein the transmitter is a first coil and is operable to transmit an electromagnetic field, and a receiver, wherein the receiver and is operable to measure the electromagnetic field.
