Quick-look Interpretation Steps

 Identify the reservoir

 Identify fluid type and contacts

 Compute porosity (Φ)

 Compute water resistivity (Rw)

 Compute water saturation (Sw)

 Compute netpay, hpm and IGIP volume

 Quick-look Interpretation Steps: Reservoir Identification

Gamma Ray
• Clean
Cl reservoir
i = llow gamma ray value
l
• Shale = high gamma ray value

Neutron-Density separation (depends on scales)

• Clean sandstone = neutron to the right of density
• Shale = density to the right of neutron

Resistivity
• Depends on fluid and water salinity
• Shale and sand resistivity are usually different.

Quick-look Interpretation Steps: Reservoir Identification

We can draw a baseline on the gamma ray log (here at

60 API units to p
partition a logged
gg interval into shale
and non-shale.
This can be done manually on the paper log, or with
any log display software
software.
Here, green = shale; yellow = non-shale (mostly
sandstone).
Shale Caution: in certain areas there are radioactive clean
formations.

 Quick-look Interpretation Steps: Reservoir Identification

We color-code the crossover between density

and neutron:
- yellow from density to neutron,
Sand - green from neutron to density.
Density on the right = shale
shale.
Neutron on the right = non-shale.
This can be done manually on the paper log

Shale or with any log display software.

Quick-look Interpretation Steps: Fluid Type Identification

Oil has very high resistivity, salt water has low resistivity.
As water saturation decreases, resistivity increases.

Quick-look Interpretation Steps: Fluid Type Identification

Neutron-density crossover is a good differentiator

between oil and gas.

As fluid density
y and hydrogen
y g index decrease,, N-D
separation increases.
Oil

Oil falls slightly above

the sandstone line.
Gas falls above and left
of the sandstone line.

 Quick-look Interpretation Steps: Porosity

1 2

Take the 1 : 2 separation for Gas

Gas give more effect for Nphi reading than Rhob

Take the middle separation for oil or water

h = 13 m

In Total E&P Indonesie:

Netpay = h = 13 m
h Hpm = h x Ф x (1-Sw)

Just for illustration, if this reservoir covered 2 km2, volume Gas we have it will be:
Volume = hpm x A
