FremgangsmÕte for karakterisering av reservoarfjell i oljefelt

摘要

Data from the pyrolytic analysis of rock samples obtained from drilling operations in an existing oil field are used to characterize the quality and condition of reservoir rock by comparison of the values of an index for the unknown reservoir rock samples with the value of the index for a known type and quality of petroleum reservoir rock sample, the index being denominated Pyrolytic Oil Productivity Index ("POPI") and defined by the expression:PPln(LV+TD+TC)×(TD÷ TC) =POPI (I),PPwhere the terms of the equation are determined empirically and the resulting POPI values can be used to direct horizontal drilling operations in real time to optimize the position of the drilling bit in the reservoir.
