    摘要: A method and apparatus for estimating a pressure transition zone in a borehole is disclosed. A parameter indicative of formation fluid pressure at a plurality of borehole depths is measured. A global trend of the parameter is determined over a first depth interval and a local trend of the parameter is determined over a second depth interval. A relation is determined between the global trend and the local trend, and the pressure transition zone is determined from the determined relation between the determined global trend and the determined local trend.

    摘要: An embodiment of a method of predicting a location of one or more features of an earth formation during a downhole operation includes acquiring reference data and identifying one or more reference data sections, each reference data section corresponding to a feature of interest and having an associated depth or depth interval, deploying a drilling assembly and drilling a target borehole in the earth formation, and performing measurements during the operation by a downhole measurement device to generate measurement data. The method also includes performing one or more correlations of the one or more measurement data sections with one or more reference data sections; and predicting at least one of a depth of a subsequent feature of interest located beyond a current carrier depth and a point in time of a future event associated with the subsequent feature of interest based on the correlation.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method for estimating a pore pressure of an earth formation penetrated by a borehole and an associated uncertainty. The method includes: conveying a carrier through the borehole; performing formation measurements relating to porosity at a plurality of depths in the borehole using a downhole tool coupled to the carrier; defining a first depth interval and a second depth interval deeper than the first depth interval, the first depth interval comprising a first set of formation measurement points and the second depth interval comprising a second set of formation measurement points; establishing a plurality of trendlines of depth versus porosity-related measurements using a processor with each trendline in the plurality of trendlines extending from a point in the first depth interval through a point in the second depth interval; and calculating a pore pressure line and associated uncertainty using the plurality of trendlines.
