New Lithium 6 (Li-6) scintillator detectors have been developed and tested for their performance under different temperature conditions. Test results show that the new detector at 175 ℃ life expectancy with the current 150 ℃ when the detector is comparable. In order to predict the possible deformation of the new detector shell and the protective layer under high temperature and high pressure conditions, the mechanical part has been studied. Finite element analysis (FEA) simulation results show that the instrument maintains its mechanical integrity under high temperature and pressure (175 ℃, 30,000psi). The Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport Code System (MCNP) was used to verify the effect of the detector package on instrument response and neutron porosity measurements. Simulation results show that the new detector shell has minimal effect on neutron porosity measurements within the standard porosity measurement range. In addition, based on a large number of simulation results at different temperatures, a new temperature correction algorithm for neutron porosity measurement has been developed. Especially when logging temperature is very high, the algorithm is more accurate than currently used. The background subtraction algorithm has been fine tuned for high noise levels at high temperatures. The limestone, sandstone and dolomite formations, saturated with water of varying porosity and borehole size, were calibrated and characterized throughout the laboratory using upgraded instrumentation. The experimental results show that there is a good agreement between the instrument readings and the accepted laboratory porosity of the formation.
