Effect of particle size on porosity

It has been found that gas hydrate is preferentially enriched in certain types of
sediments, for example in sands (Collett et al., 1988; Uchida et al., 2004; Uchida and
Tsuji, 2004 etc.), in foraminifera rich sediments (Zhang et al., 2007), etc.

Method 1: Sh using P-wave velocity

and resistivity logs
When resistivity is used for saturation, we assume that
the gas hydrates are pore fillings. Hydrate saturation
versus resistivity may be quite different if there are
massive gas hydrates that displace the sediment.
( Check for this via cross plots)
Effects on down hole resistivity due to resistive hydrate
and unusually low salinity of pore fluids. Hence, salinity
from core
But no core, so Arps, which utilizes down hole
temperatures, thermal gradients and seawater
resistivity.
Density-porosity calculated by formula

 Rw is the resistivity of connate water

R0 is the formation resistivity of water saturated
sediment
a: archie coefficient
m: cementation factor

 Density and NMR depend only on the bulk volume of

gas hydrate in the pore space.
Calculate density porosity
Prepare a synthetic curve for Rw.
Now prepare a curve for R0 using the formula
Plot a Pickett Plot of F vs DPHI and derive a and m

Secondary Porosity
Secondary porosity can be estimated from the
difference between sonic porosity and density-porosity
Sonic porosity-total porosity from density-neutron log =
secondary porosity
