The gamma spectrometry logging is widely used in survey of radioactive, metallic and non-metallic deposits and stratigraphic correlation. In order to obtain a wider energy range of gamma spectra, the authors designed the wide-energy spectra logging system with the combination of LaBr3 and BGO detectors. To determine the optimal selection principle of the wide-energy range gamma spectra logging system, the authors built a model of wide-energy spectra logging system on MCNP to simulate the measured gamma spectrum. The simulation shows that the best effect is achieved when the shield is made of tungsten-iron-nickel alloy. When the shield thickness reaches 14 cm, simulation shows better shielding effect for the distal detector. The effect for the proximal detector is close to the distal one when its relative position is 35 cm or more. The effect of changing the position of the neutron source on the thermal neutron shielding is limited. As a thermal neutron shield, boron could achieve obvious shielding effect with 0.2cm layer. The effect of fast neutron can be reduced by increasing shield thickness and the distance between the proximal detector and the shield.
