 BACKGROUND

• In the late 1990s an independent oil company drilled a 7150-ft well in southeastern New
Mexico

• it was logged with saltwatermud logging suite: Dual Laterolog-Rxo and Gamma Ray-Neutron-
Spectral Density
 Others information

• The neutron and density porosities

(PHIN and PHID, respectively) are
quantified with reference to
limestone or dolomite.
• Rw = 0.03 ohm-m at Tf.
• Rmf = 0.0406 ohm-m at Tf
OTHERS INFORMATION

ARCHIES NUMBER
A = 1
M = 2
N = 2

AREA = 160 AC RE
RF = 70%
PRICE = USD 2.00 PER MCF
 Task goals

Determine whether the zone is potentially productive,

and if so, how much hydrocarbon is in place.
I N F O R M AT I O N F R O M LO G
 I N F O R M AT I O N
• Productive zone in interval 6758- FROM LOG
6772 ft
• Dual lateral log show invasion
profile
• Neutron-porosity log crossover
indicate gas existence
• PE average value confirm that zone
is limestone
DATA FROM LOG
 CALCULATION.

1. Determining of porosity, based on log density-neutron log with

eq. 10.18

2. Correction data resistivity log to true resistivity with equation

3. Determine water saturation with archies eq. Based
on data from resistivity log
4. Determine moveable hydrocarbon index.

5. Determine bulk volume water

6. Determine OGIP with eq.

CALCULATION RESULT
BECAUSE RF = 70%, WE CAN PRODUCE 1.21 BCF.

AT PRICE USD 2.00 PER MCF,

THEN, PRODUCTION BE WORTH AT VALUE USD
