Abstract: A method for determining a level of organic maturity of a shale gas formation includes inverting multifrequency complex conductivity data to estimate a volume fraction of graphite, turbostatic carbon nanostructures, and pyrite. The inversion is validated using estimates of the volume fraction of graphite, turbostatic carbon nanostructures, and pyrite. The volume fraction of graphite and turbostatic carbon nanostructures is correlated to a level of organic maturity log of the shale gas formation. The level of organic maturity log is validated using sulfur content obtained from pyrolysis or vitrinite reflectance. A variation of an electromagnetic response due to the volume fraction of graphite, turbostatic carbon nanostructures, and pyrite is quantified. The electromagnetic response is modified by removing the quantified variation to obtain resistivity and permittivity values.

Abstract: A method to estimate water saturation in electromagnetic measurements includes making an electromagnetic measurement and performing at least one of (a) creating an analytical forward model of the EM measurement, (b) creating a numerical finite difference forward model of the EM measurement, and (c) performing an inversion. The method also includes removing at least one petrophysically-adverse alteration of EM measurements in the frequency range from 1 Hz to 100 MHz. A petrophysically-adverse alteration is due to the presence of at least one of the following: pyrite, graphitic-precursors, magnetite, and other conductive minerals.

Abstract: A method for characterizing a subterranean formation is provided that involves obtaining resistivity log data measured by a logging-while-drilling electromagnetic tool operated while drilling a wellbore that traverses the subterranean formation, and calculating at least one of a first data value representing water saturation of the subterranean formation and a second data value representing cation exchange capacity (CEC) of the subterranean formation from the resistivity log data. In embodiments, the method can further involve storing at least one of the first data value and the second data value in computer memory, and/or outputting at least one of the first data value and the second data value as part of a log for well placement, formation evaluation. geological modeling, or reservoir management. The first data value and/or the second data value can also be used for geo-steering the drilling of the wellbore.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a method for determining a wettability of one or more types of solid particles within a geological formation. The method may include receiving a plurality of electromagnetic measurements within a frequency range from an electromagnetic well-logging tool. The method may also include determining a contact angle associated with at least one type of solid particles within the geological formation using the electromagnetic measurements.

Abstract: Properties of a geological formation, such as dielectric constant and conductivity, may be determined by a propagation well log data acquired by a propagation well logging tool based at least in part on a relative longitudinal position of two or more receivers of the propagation well logging tool. In some embodiments, the relative longitudinal position of the at least two receivers is based at least in part on a first distance between a first receiver of the at least two receivers and a transmitter of the propagation well logging tool and a second distance between a second receiver of the at least two receivers and the transmitter.

Abstract: A method for evaluating saturation of a kerogen bearing subterranean formation includes obtaining conductivity and permittivity values of the formation and providing an effective medium model relating the conductivity and the permittivity to a water filled porosity of the formation and an effective aspect ratio of graphitic kerogen particulate in the formation. The obtained conductivity and the permittivity values are input into the model which is in turn processed to compute the water filled porosity. The method may further optionally include evaluating the water filled porosity to estimate a hydrocarbon producibility of the formation.

Abstract: An electromagnetic (EM) telemetry system includes an EM transmitter configured to transmit EM signals downhole and multiple sensors each configured to communicate with the EM transmitter and with another of the multiple sensors. Each sensor is placed a distance from another sensor along a length of a wellbore in the EM telemetry system. The EM telemetry system also includes a processor configured to select two or more sensors of the multiple sensors based on a signal to noise ratio (SNR) of an EM signal received from the two or more selected sensors, a depth of the EM transmitter, or both.
