High-definition
Array Induction Log
The HDIL subsurface tool is a multi-receiver,
multifrequency, fully digital array-type induction
device. The data can be processed in a variety
of ways, depending on the environment and the
client's needs. For complicated interpretation
scenarios such as thin beds (down to 1 ft. thickness)
or deep or unusual invasion, it is the service
that provides the answers.
Applications
|
- Multiple receivers provide 6 depth of investigation
from 10 to 120 in., for determining Rt &
invasion profile.
- Selectable presentation of true resolution
data or 1 ft, 2 ft, or 4 ft resolution-matched
data.
- HDIL data are well suited for advanced processing
methods such as inversion, resistivity profile,
and dipping formations.
- Correlation.
- Formation evaluation, including hydrocarbon/water
contact.

Dual
Phase Induction Log
The Dual Phase Induction Log measures formation
conductivity with three different depths of
investigation. These measurements can be used
to determine the conductivity of the undisturbed
formation, even in the presence of deep invasion.
The DPIL* also measures the spontaneous potential
(SP), which can be used to aid lithology determination.
The three conductivity measurements consist
of the Shallow Focused Laterolog (SFL) and medium
and deep induction measurements.
Applications
|
- Determine formation conductivity/resistivity
- Determine depth of investigation
- Correlation
- Formation evaluation, including hydrocarbon/water
contact
|
|
|
|
Dual
Induction-Focused Log
The dual induction-focused log provides data
from four measurements performed simultaneously.
These include resistivity curves made by a deep
investigation induction, a medium investigation
induction, and a shallow investigation focused
device. Also, a spontaneous potential measurement
is made to aid in lithology identification.
Applications
|
- Determine formation resistivity. As with all
induction tools, accuracy is highest at lower
resistivities
- Determine depth of invasion
- Correlation
- Formation evaluation, including hydrocarbon/water
contact
|
|
|
|
Dual
Laterolog
Dual Laterolog tools are electrode tools designed
to produce reliable formation resistivity measurements
in boreholes containing saline drilling fluids.
They operate by "focusing" a survey current
into the formation. Dual Laterolog instruments
are superior to induction instruments in high
resistivity (>100 ohm-m) formations and/or
well-bores with drilling fluids more conductive
than the in-situ formation waters.
Applications
|
- Determine formation resistivity in saline
mud systems and high formation resistivities
- Qualitatively indicate permeability
- Formation evaluation, including hydrocarbon/water
contact

High-Definition
Lateral Log
The High-Definition Lateral Log (HDLL*) service,
a new-generation array-type galvanic measurement
logging service, provides formation resistivities
at multiple depths of investigation in conductive,
water-based drilling mud systems. The combination
of the HDLL system_ high-vertical resolution
and deep-investigating measurements with inversion
processing provides a detailed analysis of formation
resistivity (Rt), flushed zone resistivity (Rxo),
and depth of invasion. The HDLL subsurface tool
utilizes a single-current injection electrode
and 18 measurement electrodes. The injection
current and injection potential are acquired
as well as a set of selected potentials (U),
first differences (V), and second differences
(W) of the measurement electrodes. These measurements
provide more accurate formation resistivity
data than conventional systems in thinly bedded
hydrocarbonbearing reservoirs and in the presence
of deep drilling fluid invasion. Using HDLL
data results in a better reservoir description,
more accurate water saturation (Sw) determination,
and a detailed evaluation of the drilling fluid
invasion profile.
Applications
|
- More accurate formation resistivity, water
saturation, and reserves estimates
- Better determination of movable fluids and
recovery factor Improved evaluation of thinly
bedded reservoirs
- Superior measurements in deeply invaded formations
- Detailed evaluation of the drilling fluid
invasion profile

Micro
Sphericaly Focused Logging
Micro Sphericaly Focused Logging (MSFL) uses
padmounted electrode systems. This tool measures
flushed zone resistivity (Rxo). The Rxo measurement
is used in calculating flushed zone water saturation
(Sxo) and, when use with deeper reading resistivity
measurements from other devices, in indicating
movable hydrocarbons, in determining true formation
resistivity (Rt), and in estimating invasion
diameter (di). MSFL tool has very-fine vertical
resolution and is excellent for delineating
thin beds.
MSFL tool is used in both fresh and salt muds,
and runs in combination with both Dual Induction
and Dual Laterolog tools. Gamma and Caliper logs
are recorded routinely with this tool.
Applications
|
- Measure flushed zone resistivity
- Calculate flushed zone water saturation
- Indicate movable hydrocarbons
- Estimate invasion diameter
- Correct deeper-reading resistivity devices
for invasion effects
- Delineate thin beds

Thin
Bed Resistivity Tool
The Thin-Bed Resistivity tool provides high
vertical resolution previously associated only
with micro-resistivity devices, yet it has a
depth of investigation in the range of 13 to
21 in. (330 to 533 mm). As a result, under ideal
shallow invasion conditions, the TBRT service
can be used to measure formation resistivities
in beds less than 2 in. (51 mm) in thickness.
Even when invasion is deeper, TBRT provides
an excellent indication of hydrocarbons in thin
beds, and is the best choice for bed identification
when thin bed processing is done to enhance
the resolution of standard resistivity tools.
Applications
|
- Determine flushed zone resistivity in thin
beds

Shallow
Investigation Electrical Instruments
The Micro Laterolog, Minilog, Proximity Log,
and Micro Spherical Laterolog are pad-type tools
used to measure the resistivity adjacent to
the wellbore. They all have a shallow depth
of investigation, responding primarily to mud
cake resistivity and/or flushed zone resistivity.
A caliper curve is recorded simultaneously with
the resistivity data, showing mud cake thickness
and washouts.
Micro Laterolog (MLL)
The Micro Laterolog tool has a limited depth
of lateral investigation and better vertical
resolution than the Minilog. It responds primarily
to the resistivity of the flushed zone adjacent
to the wellbore. Although usually Shallow Investigation
Electrical lnstruments run in salt mud, the
Micro Laterolog can also be run in fresh mud
where mudcake is thin.
Minilog (ML)
The Minilog combines two resistivity measurements.
Primarily reading mudcake resistivity, the short-spaced
electrode measures laterally about 1.5 in. (38.1
mm). The long-spaced electrode measures both
mudcake and formation resistivity up to 4.0
in. (101.6 mm) away from the pad.
Proximity Minilog (PROX)
The Proximity Minilog is the freshwater mud
equivalent of the Micro Laterolog. It is a focused
electrode pad device combined with a Minilog.
Stronger focusing and the ability to read deeper
into the formation are the advantages of the
Proximity Minilog.
Applications
|
- Measure flushed zone resistivity (Rxo)
- Locate porous and permeable zones
- Detect movable oil
- Determine net pay
