摘要:
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.

摘要:
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:
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.

摘要:
Formation testing systems and methods may inject fluids into a formation to initiate fractures and facilitate measurements of various formation properties. In accordance with certain disclosed embodiments, the injection tools are further provided with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) sensors to monitor the injected fluids and provide measurements of near-borehole fracture orientations and volumes. Contrast agents and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques may be employed. The fluid injection may occur via an extendible isolation pad, via a fracturing jet, or via an injection port in an isolated region of the borehole. The systems may employ pressure monitoring in conjunction with the NMR sensors to further enhance estimates of formation and fracture properties.
摘要:
The grain size distribution 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, and an acoustic velocity output of the model matches a measured acoustic velocity (compressional and/or shear). 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.
