... of information. In this paper, we analyze NMR data from core analysis and wireline logs, calibrate appropriate T 1 -T 2 cutoff values to identify hydrocarbons, compute saturations, and generate permeability models. We then build a petrophysical model, for the formations of interest, which is applied to multiple...

... be misinterpreted as pore volume. Previous attempts to eliminate the surface fluid signal employed a cutoff to the pore size distribution curve to distinguish fluid in the pores (below the cutoff) from fluid on the surface (above the cutoff). Unfortunately, the use of cutoffs is prone to error as the position...

The NMR irreducible water saturation ( S wirr ) computed with this cutoff agrees with Dean-Stark Sw, measured on core samples assumed to be fully invaded by OBM. Continuous Sw is calculated...

The workflow builds on recent advancements to extract maximum information from minimal NMR data acquisition, such as factor analysis, a statistical method to determine various T2 cutoffs, and fluids substitution, a method to replace all hydrocarbons with water in T2 distribution...

... logs, which can detect extremely fine layers with thickness of several millimeters. Traditionally, explicit sand counting in thin beds has been done by applying a user-specified cutoff on a 1-D high-resolution resistivity curve extracted from electrical borehole images. The workflow generally requires...

... ABSTRACT Assessment of net pay cutoffs in carbonates is more challenging than in clastics due to inherent heterogeneity of pore architecture and permeability. Historically, the success rate of flowing perforations is low, and operators tend to "over-perforate" to capture all potential flowing...

As for centrifuge analyses, SWirr values were about 9% higher than those obtained with standard 100 ms cutoff on T2 relaxing time, showing weak...

NMR analysis of cleaned and re-saturated core in this interval show a clay bound T2 cutoff of the standard 2.8 msec and a bulk volume irreducible water cutoff of approximately 17 msec. Both cutoffs are shown in this figure with vertical lines and indicate...

... in these reservoirs, the widespread use of conventional NMR T2 interpretation parameters has been incorporated into the analysis. Typical T2 cutoff interpretation parameters in use are ≤ 3 ms clay bound water, 3 to 33 ms for capillarity-bound fluids, and >33 ms for free fluids, which is the traditional value used...

The novel classification is done by applying carefully designed cutoffs to the pore throat radii of the core samples and is propagated to the entire well with an artificial neural network.
