摘要:
A method for determining properties of a formation traversed by a well or wellbore employs measured sonic data, resistivity data, and density data for an interval-of-interest within the well or wellbore. A formation model that describe properties of the formation at the interval-of-interest is derived from the measured sonic data, resistivity data, and density data for the interval-of-interest. The formation model is used to derive simulated sonic data, resistivity data, and density data for the interval-of-interest. The measured sonic data, resistivity data, and density data for the interval-of-interest and the simulated sonic data, resistivity data, and density data for the interval-of-interest are used to refine the formation model and determine properties of the formation at the interval-of-interest. The properties of the formation may be a radial profile for porosity, a radial profile for water saturation, a radial profile for gas saturation, a radial profile of oil saturation, and a radial profile for pore aspect ratio.

Inversion-based workflows are provided for real-time interpretation of the electromagnetic (EM) look-around and look-ahead measurements. The profile of a look-around zone is determined by interpreting EM measurements of a look-around zone. The profile of the look-around zone characterizes formation dip as well as vertical resistivity or resistivity anisotropy of one or more formation layers of the look-around zone. The profile of a look-ahead zone is determined by interpreting EM measurements of the look-ahead zone. The profile of the look-ahead zone characterizes formation dip as well as horizontal resistivity, vertical resistivity or anisotropy of one or more formation layers of the look-ahead zone. The workflows can also involve interpretation of look-around resistivity measurements to aid in the characterization of the look-around zone.

A permeability log is generated by running borehole tools in a borehole traversing a formation, including at least electromagnetic (EM) tool providing at least a low-frequency complex conductivity measurement at least one frequency. Data from the EM tool and other data obtained from other tools are provided to a wideband EM model, where a data inversion is conducted to provide a plurality of outputs from which a cementation exponent may be calculated. The cementation exponent is used to find a formation factor at each depth of interest in the borehole, and the formation factor is used to find a permeability value which is used for the permeability log. The permeability log may be generated without the use of core data.

A computer-implemented method is provided for determining properties of a formation traversed by a well or wellbore. A formation model describing formation properties at an interval-of-interest within the well or wellbore is derived from measured sonic data, resistivity data, and density data for the interval-of-interest. The formation model is used as input to a plurality of petrophysical transforms and corresponding tool response simulators that derive simulated sonic data, resistivity data, and density data for the interval-of-interest. The measured sonic data, resistivity data, and density data for the interval-of-interest and the simulated sonic data, resistivity data, and density data for the interval-of-interest are used by an inversion process to refine the formation model and determine properties of the formation at the interval-of-interest. In embodiments, properties of the formation may be radial profiles for porosity, water saturation, gas or oil saturation, or pore aspect ratio.

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards a method for obtaining and analyzing flux leakage data. Embodiments may include measuring, using a magnetic flux leakage tool, magnetic flux leakage data from a casing and determining sensor liftoff data from the flux leakage data. Embodiments may also include performing outward analytic continuation of the magnetic flux leakage data from a sensor plane to one or more additional planes and extrapolating back from the one or more additional planes to a surface. Embodiments may include applying a model-based parametric inversion to the magnetic field flux leakage data and determining, based upon, at least in part, the model-based parametric inversion, a shape and size of a corresponding corroded area associated with the casing.
