Abstract

A borehole tool calibration method may include obtaining a measured energy spectrum for at least one geological constituent based upon a first borehole tool, generating a calculated energy spectrum for the at least one geological constituent for the first borehole tool, and generating a calculated energy spectrum for the at least one geological constituent for a second borehole tool different than the first borehole tool. The method may further include determining a relationship between the calculated energy spectra for the first and second borehole tools, and determining a calibration parameter for the second borehole tool based upon the measured energy spectrum and the relationship between the calculated energy spectra for the first and second borehole tools.
