Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This hand guide in the Gulf Drilling Guides series offers practical techniques that are valuable to petrophysicists and engineers in their day-to-day jobs. Based on the author’s many years of experience working in oil companies around the world, this guide is a comprehensive collection of techniques and rules of thumb that work.The primary functions of the drilling or petroleum engineer are to ensure that the right operational decisions are made during the course of drilling and testing a well, from data gathering, completion and testing, and thereafter to provide the necessary parameters to enable an accurate static and dynamic model of the reservoir to be constructed. This guide supplies these, and many other, answers to their everyday problems. There are chapters on NMR logging, core analysis, sampling, and interpretation of the data to give the engineer a full picture of the formation. There is no other single guide like this, covering all aspects of well logging and formation evaluation, completely updated with the latest techniques and applications. · A valuable reference dedicated solely to well logging and formation evaluation.· Comprehensive coverage of the latest technologies and practices, including, troubleshooting for stuck pipe, operational decisions, and logging contracts.· Packed with money-saving and time saving strategies for the engineer working in the field.

Download or read book Well Logging for Earth Scientists written by Darwin V. Ellis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-06-18 with total page 697 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first edition of this book demystified the process of well log analysis for students, researchers and practitioners. In the two decades since, the industry has changed enormously: technical staffs are smaller, and hydrocarbons are harder to locate, quantify, and produce. New drilling techniques have engendered new measurement devices incorporated into the drilling string. Corporate restructuring and the "graying" of the workforce have caused a scarcity in technical competence involved in the search and exploitation of petroleum. The updated 2nd Edition reviews logging measurement technology developed in the last twenty years, and expands the petrophysical applications of the measurements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several excellent books on weil log interpretation have already been published. However, I feel that these books do not place enough emphasis on the inherent uncertainties in tool responses or on the related and very practical problern of selecting suitable data points for statistical or quantita tive calculations. Thus, I have written this book not only to introduce the newcomer to this very complex art and science, but also to provide him or her with the necessary tools to produce better interpretations. The problems at the end of each chapter are essential to a more complete understanding of the subject matter and include many practical notes based on problems I have encountered in actual applications. This book emphasizes that you develop your own concepts and understanding of the underlying principles, rather than acquiring a compendium of knowledge based on certain rules of thumb. If you are to successfully interpret welllogs, you need to be able to apply your knowledge to new problems that may not follow the preconceived ideas and approaches you would follow if you approached weil log analysis from a cookbook standpoint.

This book was released on 2008-05-25 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States there are several thousand devices containing high-activity radiation sources licensed for use in areas ranging from medical uses such as cancer therapy to safety uses such as testing of structures and industrial equipment. Those radiation sources are licensed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and state agencies. Concerns have been raised about the safety and security of the radiation sources, particularly amid fears that they could be used to create dirty bombs, or radiological dispersal device (RDD). In response to a request from Congress, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission asked the National Research Council to conduct a study to review the uses of high-risk radiation sources and the feasibility of replacing them with lower risk alternatives. The study concludes that the U.S. government should consider factors such as potential economic consequences of misuse of the radiation sources into its assessments of risk. Although the committee found that replacements of most sources are possible, it is not economically feasible in some cases. The committee recommends that the U.S. government take steps to in the near term to replace radioactive cesium chloride radiation sources, a potential "dirty bomb" ingredient used in some medical and research equipment, with lower-risk alternatives. The committee further recommends that longer term efforts be undertaken to replace other sources. The book presents a number of options for making those replacements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Petrophysical well-logs are incremental-depth records of rock, mineral, fluid, and other properties of the subsurface. Well logs and the practice of well-log interpretation by geologists and petroleum engineers represent a critical component of the exploration and assessment of potential hydrocarbon producing formations and reservoirs.The fundamentals of petrophysical well-log interpretation are presented in this monograph, which is a compilation of slide-oriented course notes and commentary created by the author over many semesters of undergraduate and graduate class-room instruction and is designed as a self-teaching guide with worksheets.Chapter 1 is an introduction to well-log interpretation, reviews discipline terminology, the types and uses of various well logs, and how the analyst might visually review logs in an effort to identify potentially productive zones of hydrocarbons. Chapter 2 introduces the reader the borehole environment and a view of the zones in a porous and permeable formation that has been invaded during drilling. The algorithmic steps are presented for computation of formation temperature from data on the log header.Chapters 3-7 present to the user the general information and characteristics of the various well logs including what individual well logs are designed to measure and how tool measurements are converted to appropriate units needed for hydrocarbon production assessment. Each chapter presents well-log analysis for two well-known Cretaceous formations: Glen Rose and Frontier.Chapter 8 reviews the critically important "Archie Parameters" that subsequently are used in Chapter 9 to compute the water saturations of the Glen Rose and Frontier formations using the Archie water-saturation equation. In prior worksheets, the reader is guided to the determination that the Frontier formation is a shaly sandstone and therefore the specific methods of "shaly-sandstone analysis" are required. Chapter 10 is a review of additional techniques used to progressively refine interpretation of the two formations through well-log analysis. Additional techniques demonstrated include guidance on the user answering the following questions: (1) Are the hydrocarbons calculated within Chapter 9 moveable? (2) Are the two formations "water-wet" or "oil-wet?" (3) What are the pore types within the Glen Rose? (4) Should the Glen Rose and Frontier formations individually make "water-free completions." Similar to the other chapters, the information acquired and computations by the user are oriented around worksheets so that final interpretations of each formation can be made.Chapter 11 introduces and extensively reviews techniques useful for the evaluation of hydrocarbon potential in unconventional shale reservoirs using the standard well-log suite comprised of resistivity, neutron porosity, and bulk density logs. The techniques will be presented along with four case studies of the gas-bearing Woodford Shale and the three oil-bearing shales (Permian Leonard shale and two Permian Wolfcamp shales).Although the focus of the self-guided components of the monograph are generally restricted to a few select formations. The monograph includes considerable information and examples of, the well logs, host-rock properties (sandstones, shales, ...), and reservoirs within other formations discussed include: Ordovician Gunton; Devonian Marcellus; Mississippian Barnett, Chester, Mission Canyon; Pennsylvanian Canyon, Springer, Morrow, and Upper Morrow; Permian Bone Springs, Glorieta, and San Andres; Triassic Montney; Cretaceous Lewis, Pictured Cliffs, and Woodbine.The slides and commentary in this monograph are expected to be useful to a broad range of petrophysical well log analysts as tools to practical application as well as ascending for the beginner the formidable learning curve of petrophysical well-log interpretation.
