Abstract (en)

Systems and methods are provided for an integrated caliper measurement obtained based on caliper measurements from at least two downhole tools. In one example, a system for obtaining such an integrated caliper includes several caliper tools and data processing circuitry. The caliper tools may respectively obtain caliper measurements of a wellbore. The data processing circuitry may assign respective weights to the respective caliper measurements and combine the weighted caliper measurements to obtain an integrated caliper measurement. The confidence factors may be determined based at least partly on at least two of a plurality of weighting functions. These weighting functions may each relate a confidence of the caliper measurements to an environmental or drilling characteristic occurring when the caliber measurements are obtained.
