Abstract (en)

[origin: US2013087388A1] A method for detecting a wellbore influx with drill string distributed measurements includes obtaining a first annular measurement from a first sensor disposed on a drill string. The method also includes obtaining a second annular measurement from a second sensor disposed on the drill string and computing a gradient of a first interval defined by the first and second sensors. Finally, the method includes detecting a wellbore influx based on the gradient and the first and second annular measurements.
