A method of determining the distribution of shales, sands and water in a reservoir including laminated shaly sands using vertical and horizontal conductivities derived from nuclear, NMR, and multi-component induction data such as from a Multicomponent Induction Logging Tool
摘要:
The distribution of shales, sands and water in a reservoir including laminated shaly sands using vertical and horizontal conductivities is derived from nuclear, NMR, and multi-component induction data. The multicomponent data are inverted and an estimate of the laminated shale volume from this inversion is compared with an estimate of laminated shale volume from nuclear logs. The bulk water volume determined from the inversion is compared with a bulk irreducible water volume from NMR measurements. NMR data are then used to obtain a sand distribution in the reservoir and this sand distribution is used in a second inversion of the multicomponent data. Alternatively, a bulk permeability measurement is used as a constraint in inverting the properties of the anisotropic sand component of the reservoir. From the resistivities of the sand laminae, empirical relations are used to predict anisotropic reservoir properties of the reservoir.

Spin echo signals measured with a multifrequency NMR logging tool are analyzed to determine if one or more of the regions of examination associated with each of the frequencies has signal contamination from borehole fluids. A variety of different methods can be used for analysis. Corrected spin echo signals can be obtained and processed to give improved estimates of formation parameters.

Parameters of a pore-scale geometric model of a clastic earth formation are adjusted so that the output of the model matches measurements made one a core sample. Additional properties of the earth formation are predicted using the pore-scale model. The additional properties may be based on additional measurements of properties of a fluid in the formation.

In one method, the permeabilities are obtained by correcting the geometric factor derived from combining the FRA analysis and buildup analysis. In a second method, the permeabilities are obtained by combining the spherical permeability estimated from buildup analysis and the geometric skin factor obtained from history matching the probe-pressure data. In other methods, horizontal and vertical permeabilities are determined by analysis of pressure drawdown made with a single probe of circular aperture in a deviated borehole at two different walls of the borehole.

Estimates of ringing produced by short recovery pulse sequences (CPMG or modified CPMG) are used to improve the effects of ringing in a conventional CPMG or modified CPMG sequences. This is an effective method for removal of ringing when the ringing is varying over a time interval that would be spanned by a phase alternated pair of conventional sequences. By use of frequency dithering, ringing due to the excitation pulse and the refocusing pulses can be removed.

An apparatus for estimating a property of an earth formation penetrated by a borehole, the apparatus includes: a carrier configured to be conveyed through the borehole; a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) instrument disposed at the carrier and configured to perform an NMR measurement on a volume sensitive to the NMR measurement; and a contrast agent disposed in the volume and comprising particles that form a suspension in a liquid, the suspension of particles being configured increase a magnetic field gradient of at least one earth formation material in the volume to change an NMR relaxation time constant of the at least one earth formation material; wherein the NMR measurement on the volume containing the at least one earth formation material and the contrast agent is used to estimate the property.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for evaluating a formation is presented. The apparatus comprises a tubular string deployed into a wellbore penetrating the formation, where the tubular string has a longitudinal flow passage therethrough. A flow sub in the tubular string provides fluid communication between the longitudinal flow passage in the tubular string and an annulus between the tubular string and a wall of the wellbore. A wireline tool is attached proximate a bottom end of the flow sub. A telemetry module proximate the flow sub provides communication between the wireline tool and a surface system, without the use of a wireline to the surface.
摘要:
The grain size of a pore-scale geometric model of a clastic earth formation are adjusted so that the NMR relaxation time distribution output of the model matches a measured NMR distribution. Fluid drainage and imbibing can be simulated. Additional properties of the earth formation are predicted using the pore-scale model. The additional properties may be based on additional measurements of properties of a fluid in the formation.
