- reservoir identification and porosity coefficient determination according to 2NNKt, NGK-60 methods;
- oil/gas-saturation coefficient determination in cased wells;
- hydrocarbon content determination in cased well reservoir;
- oilbearing interval identification, watered by fresh waters in cased wells;
- free-salined salinity zone identification at the expense of column seal failure by mineralized waters,
injected in oilbearing beds in order to provide bottom-hole pressure in cased wells;
- washing fluid saline filtrate penetration interval identification in reservoir beds with low formation water
mineralization;
- washing fluid fresh filtrate penetration interval identification in reservoir beds with high formation water
mineralization;

SNGK spectral neutron-gamma-ray logging, 2NNKt
dual-sonde epithermal neutron logging and NGK-60
method is realized when registing capture gamma-rays of thermal neutrons with energy up to 500 keV. At

TECHNOLOGY FOR CURRENT OIL SATURATION ESTIMATION
THROUGH NUCLEAR LOGGING METHODS
|
|
|
|
is designed for a current monitoring of designing oil and oil/gas ledge by a complex of nuclear-geophysical
methods, which contain of spectral impulse neutron gamma-ray (INGR-S or C/O logging), dual modification impulse neutron gamma-ray (2INGR, 2INNL) and spectral natural gamma radiation logging (SGR).
Problems to be solved:
- information supply for effective control of design process of productive oil and gas ledges according to results research of cased well of old fund, and also newly drilling wells;
- volumetric reservoir model elaboration considering the nature of natural gamma-radiation and elemental rock composition;
- rock pore space fluid model determination;
- oilsaturated ledge emissions;
- current productive ledge coefficient evaluation;
- watering interval emission with evaluation.
Carbon-oxygen logging (C/O logging) is realized with the usage of, by a modern well, TzSP C/O-90 software-controlled apparatus with high-frequency neutron generator on MEV 14, fast register channel and telemetry, energy and temp fluence rate spread of gamma radiation, appearing in a result of neutron reaction on nuclears of rock-forming elements. It is related to methods of weight content rock-forming elements determination. Carbon-oxygen logging is direct method ledge emisions, containing carbons. Fluent rate from nuclears to carbon and oxygen, which decrease according to ledge watering in consequence of it replacement by water irrespective of mineralization, is used as a carbon content measure.
Impulse neutron logging is represented by software multisonde apparatus of new generation with a high speed of measuring channel and registration ability of multi-channel temp fluence thermal neutron spread (INNK) and gamma-radiation of radiative capture (INGK)- TzSP 2INNK and TzSP 2INGK. The method allows to trace water-oil contacts, to estimate reservoir saturation character in conditions of mineralized ledge water, to learn desalting dynamics and exploited ledge salinisation. In complex with C/O logging data 2INGK results allow to determine fluid reservoir model in detail and unambiguously, specify watering intervals, quantitively estimate a part of nonsaline fluid in reservoir.
Spectral gamma-ray logging (SGK) is made by TzSP GK-S apparatus with the aim of estimation uranium,potassium, thorium radiactive elements. SGK allows to determine the type of clay mineral in clayish cross-section or pinpoint hightened natural radioactivity of Polymistic sandstone, radioactive bitumen or secondary converted rocks.
Received information is used for revision of rock property in reservoir and for improving of interpretation
uniqueness of C/O logging results. SGK realization in cased borehole allow to record radiogeochemical anomalies, connected with a process of water encroachment.
Complex of nuclear-geophysical method have large informativity and decide large spectrum of problems both of oilfield and geological prospecting plan.
Borehole equipments are certified and have sanitation-and-epidemiological conclusion on their usage. Borehole equipment production is made according to individual agreement with a client by rendering services on exploration and usage modern technologies of borehole research. Apparatus development for each type of logging are accompanied by development and adaptation of software and algorythmic support for preprocessing of research results. Complex result interpretation technique together with data of GIS, registered on open sidetrack, is designed to get geological results.
Nuclear-geophysical apparatus metrological verifying in metrological centre OAO NPP VNIIGIS. Metrological centre contain model park in view of reservoir imitators of different density, porosity, lithology and saturation, part of which is certified as State Standard (SS).
Today the effectivity of nuclear-geophysical methods complex usage is proved on the example of several thousands wells in West Siberia, Volga region, Kazaxstan and other regions of Russia and neighboring countries.

Detectors dimensions are 18×40 and 18×160 for the TzSP-2INGK-43, or 50×50 and 50×100 for the TzSP-2INGK-90.
The downhole tool is connected with an on-board system by one- or three-core cable. Depending on command content, the tool successively carries out operations on the adjustment and testing of operating modes, recording and transmitting the data about channel parameters and information storage in the quantization intervals about an inelastic scattering gamma-ray, radiation capture gamma-ray and epithermal neutron
space-time and energy distributions. Three energy spectra from a scintillation detector contains the information about inelastic scattering gamma-ray at the moment of the fast neutron emission, about the background emission and radiation capture.
An applied software includes the following programs:
- the complex calibration programs considering "dead" time of the recording paths by the measurements in a water-filled tank;
- interpretation parameter calculation program by 1- or 2-component models, namely, thermal neutron decay time in a formation and near zone; formation and near zone original amplitudes; the back-ground components for each sonde; calculation of any derivative parameter by 1- or 2-component
model;
- programs of data displaying and printing in the form of diagrams in the given amplitude and depth scale;
- a program service package to redact the data with a given calibration step by depth, as well as to redact a single record point, for time scale compressing and expanding; for positive depth forming; for correcting by magnetic marks; for storing and loading-in of configuration; for specifying the dimensions and numbers of the margins for a display and a printer; of plotted diagram types; their displacements
and other functions.
Preprocessing results are represented as diagrams or as LAS file.
Advantages
- The measuring of space and time distribution of thermal neutrons or radiation capture gamma-quanta in boreholes provides an increased reliability and simplicity of the oil-field and oil-prospecting geophysics conventional problem solving and allows obtaining information about a proximate zone condition as well as about the vertical bedding of the section under study.
- The use of INNK tool comparing to pulse neutron gamma-ray logging tool is effective in rocks with high natural radioactivity and radioactive sault sediments in wells.
- The use of INGK tool comparing to pulse neutron gamma-ray logging tool allows to get higher statistics of registered radiation and it is also effective in wells, cased by glass-reinforced plastic pipes.
