摘要:
Systems and methods for estimating surface of fracture per volume of rock are provided. The systems include a logging tool, such as a resistivity tool, for generating a borehole image representative of segments of fractures in one or more planes and a processor for estimating surface of fracture per volume of rock (P32) from the segments without the need for defining the one or more planes bearing the segments. The methods include using a downhole logging tool, such as a resistivity tool, to collect data corresponding to segments of fractures in one or more planes, and estimating surface of fracture per volume of rock (P32) by reconstructing theoretical elliptical fractures from the segment data, calculating length of fracture segment per surface of borehole (P21) for the theoretical elliptical fractures, and deriving P32 from P21.

A petrophysically regularized time domain nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) inversion includes using an NMR tool to acquire NMR data and inverting the acquired NMR data in a time domain using petrophysical constraints. The inverted NMR data is analyzed. The petrophysical constraints may be identified by: determining a number of porobodons to seek, defining a plurality of zones in which only a subset of porobodon sets is present, and stacking all NMR echoes in each zone satisfying discriminators. The number of porobodons to seek may be based on knowledge of core samples, logs, and NMR sensitivity. The discriminator logs may be logs sensitive to porosity partitioning. A computing system having a processor, a memory, and a program stored in memory may be configured to perform the method. The system may be conveyed downhole on a wireline, a while-drilling drill string, a coiled tubing, a slickline, or a wired drill pipe.

Well completion techniques are disclosed that combine the creation of perforation clusters created using abrasive-jet perforation techniques with hydraulic fracturing techniques that include proppant pulsing through the clustered abrasive jet perforations. Both the abrasive-jet perforation and hydraulic fracturing with proppant pulsing may be carried out through coiled tubing.

An oilfield material reservoir is disclosed. The oilfield material reservoir has a body, the body having an upper end, a lower end, a sidewall extending between the upper and lower ends, the sidewall defining a recess within the body, an opening defined by the upper end, and a first orifice defined by the lower end. The oilfield material reservoir is also provided with a metering gate connected to the body at the lower end. The metering gate has a base having a second orifice aligned with the first orifice, and a knife gate connected to the base. The second orifice has a substantially trapezoidal shape. The knife gate is configured to slidably cover the second orifice. A method is also disclosed for controlling a discharge rate of oilfield material within the oilfield material reservoir by adjusting a metering open area of the second orifice according to mathematical modeling equations.

Electromagnetic (EM) survey processing comprising operating an electronic device to model expected EM field components to be measured by an EM apparatus associated with a subterranean formation, wherein the EM apparatus comprises at least one EM source and at least one EM receiver. The electronic device may be operated to determine one or more ratios of the modeled EM field components. The at least one EM source may be operated to emit an EM signal into the subterranean formation, and the at least one EM receiver may be operated to measure actual EM field components of the EM signal. The electronic device may then be operated to compare the one or more ratios of the modeled EM field components with one or more ratios of the actual EM field components. The one or more ratios of the modeled EM field components may then be updated based on the comparison.

Many wellbore service operations involve placing a line in the wellbore. The line may be used to transmit power to downhole tools, convey signals from downhole-measurement instruments, or both. A problem associated with such operations involves drag forces experienced by the line as process fluids flow through the well, particularly the interior of a tubular body such as casing. The drag forces may cause the line to fail. Magnetizing the line solves this problem. During deployment, the line will migrate and become attached to the casing. Drag forces are significantly reduced because the line is no longer surrounded by moving fluid.

A method, computer program product, and computing system for receiving downhole logging data for a porous media. A pore size distribution index may be estimated based upon, at least in part, nuclear magnetic resonance data (NMR) from the downhole logging data of the porous media. A relative permeability and capillary pressure curve may be generated with a feasible region of solutions based upon, at least in part, the pore size distribution index.

A method can include accessing a depogrid generated via gridding of a structural model in a depositional space and transforming the gridded structural model to a geological space via an inverse mapping where the structural model represents structural features in a subterranean environment based at least in part on data acquired via at least one sensor; determining local u, v and w axes for a plurality of cells in the depogrid via volumetric centroids and vertices represented by coordinates in a depositional space coordinate system (u, v, w) and by coordinates in a physical coordinate system (x, y, z); defining directional geological grid properties based at least in part on the local u, v and w axes; and simulating physical phenomena of the subterranean environment via a simulator based at least in part on at least a portion of the directional geological grid properties.

A target assembly for a radiation generator may include a target body and a beam dump. The target assembly may also include a temperature activated coupler between the target body and the beam dump to move the beam dump between a non-contact position with the target body and a contact position with the target body based upon temperature.

Methods and systems are described for using pulsed neutron ?-ray spectroscopy to measure formation water salinity from within a bore-hole. Through generating a cross-plot of database values of ratios of spectroscopically determined yields of hydrogen (H) and chlorine (Cl) from two detectors, deriving apparent salinities therefrom, formation and borehole water salinities can be determined.
