    摘要: A method for transforming an earth formation and/or production equipment based on correcting nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data to account for partially water-saturated rock includes: receiving NMR logging data having echo-trains for an earth formation; inverting the echo-trains to provide transverse relaxation time constant (T2) distributions for various components of fluid in the earth formation; substituting a T2 distribution for mobile water of fully water-saturated rock for a T2 distribution for mobile water of partially water-saturated rock based on values of the mobile water T2 distribution of partially water-saturated rock and a total porosity constraint; summing the T2 distribution for mobile water of fully water-saturated rock and a T2 distribution for an immobile water component of the fluid to provide a T, distribution for fully water-saturated rock; and transforming the earth formation and/or the production equipment based on a parameter derived from the T2 distribution for fully water-saturated rock.

    摘要: A method for estimating one or more properties as a function of depth of an earth formation penetrated by a borehole includes: receiving nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) logging data having NMR echo trains as a function of depth in the borehole; receiving non-NMR logging data having non-NMR measurement values for one or more types of non-NMR measurements as a function of depth in the borehole; generating an evolution matrix (E) representing a mathematical relationship between the one or more properties in property matrix (P) to be estimated and the NMR logging data and non-NMR logging data matrix (M); generating a matrix equation of the form M=E·P; and inverting the matrix equation to estimate the one or more properties as a function of depth.

    摘要: A method for performing a formation-related physical action includes: receiving image data of a wall of a borehole penetrating a formation, the image data having image data of fractures intersecting the wall of the borehole; and defining a volume surrounding the borehole. The method also includes determining a surface area of each fracture intersecting the volume at each defined depth in a plurality of depths and calculating a fracture density for each defined depth based on the surface area of each fracture intersecting the volume at each defined depth in a plurality of depths and a size of the volume. The method further includes performing the formation-related physical action based on the fracture density for each defined depth using apparatus configured to perform the formation-related physical action.
