Objectives of the prompt fission neutron (PFN) logging project consist of a feasibility determination, development of the PFN method and log interpretation, field demonstration of the PFN method and hardware, and support for the commercialization of hardware. This paper presents the current status of the PFN development project. 10 figures. (DLC)
