Purpose
This diagram presents the symbols and their descriptions and relations as used in the charts. See Appendixes D and E for identification of the symbols.
Description
The wellbore is shown traversing adjacent beds above and below the
zone of interest. The symbols and descriptions provide a graphical
representation of the location of the various symbols within the wellbore and formations.

Purpose
This chart has a twofold purpose. First, a geothermal gradient can
be assumed by entering the depth and a recorded temperatureat
thatdepth. Second, for an assumed geothermal gradient, if the temperature is known at one depth in the well, the temperature at
anotherdepth in the well can be determined.
Description
Depth is on the y-axis and has the shallowest at the top and the
deepest at the bottom. Both feet and meters are used, on theleft
andright axes, respectively. Temperature is plotted on the x-axis,
withFahrenheit on the bottom and Celsius on the top of thechart.
Theannual mean surface temperature is also presented in
Fahrenheitand Celsius.
Example
Given:
Find:
Answer:
Bottomhole depth = 11,000 ft and bottomhole temperature = 200F (annual mean surface temperature = 80F).
Temperature at 8,000 ft.
The intersection of 11,000 ft on the y-axis and 200F
on the x-axis is a geothermal gradient of approximately
1.1F/100 ft (Point A on the chart).
Move upward along an imaginary line parallel to the constructed gradient lines until the depth line for 8,000 ft is
intersected. This is Point B, for which the temperature
on the x-axis is approximately 167F.

Purpose
This chart is used to approximate the parts-per-million (ppm) concentration of a sodium chloride (NaCl) solution for which the total
solids concentration of the solution is known. Once the equivalent
concentration of the solution is known, the resistivity of the solution
for a given temperature can be estimated with Chart Gen-6.
Description
The x-axis of the semilog chart is scaled in total solids concentration
and the y-axis is the weighting multiplier. The curve set represents
the various multipliers for the solids typically in formation water.

General
Purpose
This chart has a twofold purpose. The first is to determine the resistivity of an equivalent NaCl concentration (from Chart Gen-4) at a
specific temperature. The second is to provide a transition of resistivity at a specific temperature to another temperature. The solution
resistivity value and temperature at which the value was determined
are used to approximate the NaCl ppm concentration.
Description
The two-cycle log scale on the x-axis presents two temperature
scalesfor Fahrenheit and Celsius. Resistivity values are on the left
four-cycle log scale y-axis. The NaCl concentration in ppm and
grains/gal at 75F [24C] is on the right y-axis. The conversion
approximation equation for the temperature (T) effect on the
resistivity (R) value at the top of the chart is valid only for the
temperature range of 68 to 212F [20 to 100C].
Example Two
Given:
Solution resistivity = 0.3 ohm-m at 75F.
Find:
Solution resistivity at 200F [93C].
Answer 1: Enter 0.3 ohm-m and 75F and find their intersection
on the 20,000-ppm concentration line. Follow the line to
the right to intersect the 200F vertical line (interpolate
between existing lines if necessary). The resistivity value
for this point on the left y-axis is 0.115 ohm-m.
Answer 2: Resistivity at 200F = resistivity at 75F [(75 + 6.77)/
(200 + 6.77)] = 0.3 (81.77/206.77) = 0.1186 ohm-m.
Example One
Given:
NaCl equivalent concentration = 20,000 ppm.
Temperature of concentration = 75F.
Find:
Resistivity of the solution.
Answer:
Enter the ppm concentration on the y-axis and the temperature on the x-axis to locate their point of intersection on the chart. The value of this point on the left
y-axis is 0.3 ohm-m at 75F.

Purpose
These charts are for determination of the density (g/cm3) and hydrogen index of water for known values of temperature, pressure, and
salinity of the water. From a known hydrocarbon density of oil, a
determination of the hydrogen index of the oil can be obtained.
Description: Density of Water
To obtain the density of the water, enter the desired temperature (F
at the bottom x-axis or C at the top) and intersect the pressure and
salinity in the chart. From that point read the density on the y-axis.

This chart can be used to determine more than one characteristic
of natural gas under different conditions. The characteristics are
gas density (g), gas pressure, and hydrogen index (Hgas).
Description
For known values of gas density, pressure, and temperature, the value
of Hgas can be determined. If only the gas pressure and temperature
are known, then the gas density and Hgas can be determined. If the
gas density and temperature are known, then the gas pressure and
Hgas can be determined.

Description
Enter the chart with the compressional slowness time (tc) from the
sonic log on the y-axis and the liquid saturation of the formation on
the x-axis. The curves are used to determine the gas effect on the
basis of which correlation (Woods law or Power law) is applied.The
slowing effect begins sooner for the Power law correlation. The
Woods law correlation slightly increases tc values as the formation
liquid saturation increases whereas the Power law correlation
decreases tc values from about 20% liquid saturation.

Purpose
Longitudinal (Bulk) Relaxation Time of Pure Water
This chart provides an approximation of the bulk relaxation time
(T1) of pure water depending on the temperature of the water.
Transverse (Bulk and Diffusion) Relaxation Time of Water
in the Formation
Determining the bulk and diffusion relaxation time (T2) from this
chart requires knowledge of both the formation temperature and
the echo spacing (TE) used to acquire the data. These data are presented graphically on the log and are the basis of the water or
hydrocarbon interpretation of the zone of interest.
14
Description
Longitudinal Relaxation Time
The chart relation is for pure waterthe additives in drilling fluids
reduce the relaxation time (T1) of water in the invaded zone. The
two major contributors to the reduction are surfactants added to the
drilling fluid and the molecular interactions of the mud filtrate contained in the pore spaces and matrix minerals of the formation.
Transverse Relaxation Time
The relaxation time (T2) determination is based on the formation
temperature and echo spacing used to acquire the measurement.
The TE value is listed in the parameter section of the log. Using
the T2 measurement from a known water sand or based on local
experience further aids in determining whether a zone of
interest contains hydrocarbons, water, or both.

Purpose
This chart is used to compensate for the effects of the casing,
cement sheath, and borehole fluid on the GR count rate in cased
holes for conditions of an eccentered 338-in. tool in an 8-in. borehole
with 10-lbm/gal mud.
Description
In small boreholes the count rate can be too large, and in larger
boreholes the count rate can be too small. The chart is based on
openhole Chart GR-1, modified by laboratory and Monte Carlo
calculations to provide a correction factor for application to
the measured GR count rate in cased hole environments:

Purpose
This chart is used to illustrate the potassium correction that is subtracted from the borehole-corrected gamma ray from the EcoScope
6.75-in. Integrated LWD tool. Environmental corrections for mud
weight, bit size, and potassium are normally already applied to the
gamma ray presented on the field logs.
Description
This chart is for illustrative purposes only. The indicated correction
is already applied on the gamma ray log. The chart shows the correction for a typical 5-wt% potassium concentration.
To determine the correction that was applied to the log output,
enter the chart with the borehole size on the x-axis and move upward
to intersect the downhole mud weight. From the intersection point
move horizontally left to read the correction curve in gAPI units that
was subtracted from the borehole-corrected data.

Spontaneous PotentialWireline
Purpose
This chart and nomograph are used to calculate the equivalent formation water resistivity (Rweq) from the static spontaneous potential
(ESSP) measured in clean formations. The value of Rweq is used in
Chart SP-2 to determine the resistivity of the formation water (Rw).
Rw is used in Archies water saturation equation.
SP
Description
Enter the chart with ESSP in millivolts on the x-axis and move upward
to intersect the appropriate temperature line. From the intersection
point move horizontally to intersect the right y-axis for Rmfeq/Rweq.
From this point, draw a straight line through the equivalent mud filtrate resistivity (Rmfeq) point on the Rmfeq nomograph to intersect the
value of Rweq on the far-right nomograph.
The spontaneous potential (SP) reading corrected for the effect
of bed thickness (ESPcor) from Chart SP-4 can be substituted for ESSP.
48
Example
First determine the value of Rmfeq:
If Rmf at 75F is greater than 0.1 ohm-m, correct Rmf
to the formation temperature by using Chart Gen-6,
and use Rmfeq = 0.85Rmf.
If Rmf at 75F is less than 0.1 ohm-m, use Chart SP-2
to derive a value of Rmfeq at formation temperature.
Given:
ESSP = 100 mV at 250F and resistivity of the mud
filtrate (Rmf) = 0.7 ohm-m at 100F, converted to 0.33
at 250F.
Find:
Rweq at 250F.
Answer:
Rmfeq = 0.85Rmf = 0.85 0.33 = 0.28 ohm-m.
Draw a straight line from the point on the Rmfeq /Rweq line
that corresponds to the intersection of ESSP = 100 mV and
the interpolated 250F temperature curve through the
value of 0.28 ohm-m on the Rmfeq line to the Rweq line to
determine that the value of Rweq is 0.025 ohm-m.
The value of Rmfeq /Rweq can also be determined from the
equation
ESSP = K c log (Rmfeq /Rweq),
where K c is the electrochemical spontaneous potential
coefficient:
K c = 61 + (0.133 TempF)
K c = 65 + (0.24 TempC).

Purpose
Chart SP-4 is used to correct the SP reading from the well log for
the effect of bed thickness. Generally, water sands greater than
20 ft in thickness require no or only a small correction.
Description
Chart SP-4 incorporates correction factors for a number of conditions that can affect the value of the SP in water sands.
SP
52
The appropriate chart is selected on the basis of resistivity, invasion, hole diameter, and bed thickness. First, select the row of charts
with the most appropriate value of the ratio of the resistivity of shale
(Rs) to the resistivity of mud (Rm). On that row, select a chart for no
invasion or for invasion for which the ratio of the diameter of invasion
to the diameter of the wellbore (di /dh) is 5. Enter the x-axis with
the value of the ratio of bed thickness to wellbore diameter (h/dh).
Move upward to intersect the appropriate curve of the ratio of the
true formation resistivity to the resistivity of the mud (Rt /Rm) for
no invasion or the ratio of the resistivity of the flushed zone to the
resistivity of the mud (Rxo /Rm) for invaded zones, interpolating
between the curves as necessary. Read the ratio of the SP read from
the log to the corrected SP (ESP/ESPcor) on the y-axis for the point of
intersection. Calculate ESPcor = ESP/(ESP/ESPcor). The value of ESPcor
can be used in Chart SP-1 for ESSP.

Purpose
This chart is used to provide an empirical correction to the SP for
the effects of invasion and bed thickness. The correction was obtained
by averaging a series of thin-bed corrections in Reference 4. The
resulting value of static spontaneous potential (ESSP) can be used
in Chart SP-1.
Description
This chart considers bed thickness (h) as a variable, and the ratio of
the resistivity of the invaded zone to the resistivity of the mud (Ri /Rm)
and the diameter of invasion (di ) as parameters of fixed value. The
borehole diameter is fixed at 8 in. and the tool size at 338 in.
54
To obtain the correction factor, enter the chart on the x-axis with
the value of h. Move upward to the appropriate di curve for the range
of Ri /Rm. The correction factor on the y-axis corresponding to the
intersection point is multiplied by the SP from the log to obtain the
corrected SP.

Enter the chart with for the appropriate formation along the y-axis
and the corrected TNPH porosity along the x-axis. Where the lines
drawn from these points intersect, move parallel to the closest trend
line to intersect the appropriate fresh- or saltwater line to read the
corrected porosity.
The chart at the bottom of the page is used to correct the corrected porosity for salt displacement if the formation is due to
salinity. However, this correction is not made if the borehole salinity
correction from Chart Neu-1 has been applied.

Description
Enter the appropriate formation chart with the formation fluid
value on the y-axis and the Chart Neu-1 corrected TNPH porosity on
the x-axis. Where the lines drawn from these points intersect, move
parallel to the closest trend line to intersect the appropriate freshor saltwater line. If the borehole salinity correction from Chart Neu-1
has not been applied, from this point extend a line down to intersect
the formation salinity chart at the bottom. Move parallel to the
closest trend line to intersect the formation salinity line. Move
straight down to read the corrected porosity on the scale below
the chart.

Neu
Description
Enter the scale at the top of the chart with a whole-number (not
fractional) porosity value. Draw a straight line vertically through
the three charts representing borehole size, casing thickness, and
cement thickness. Draw a horizontal line on each chart from the
appropriate value on the y-axis. At the intersection point of the vertical line and the horizontal line on each chart proceed to the blue
dashed horizontal line by following the slope of the blue solid lines
on each chart. At that point read the change in porosity index. The
cumulative change in porosity is added to the logged porosity to obtain
the corrected value. As can be seen, the major influences to the casingderived porosity are the borehole size and the cement thickness. The
same procedure applies to the metric chart.
The blue dashed lines represent the standard conditions from
which the charts were developed: 8 34-in. open hole, 51 2-in. 17-lbm
casing, and 1.62-in. annular cement thickness.
The neutron porosity equivalence nomographs at the bottom are
used to convert from the log standard of limestone porosity to porosity for other matrix materials.
The porosity value corrected with Chart Neu-9 is entered into
Chart Neu-1 to provide environmental corrections necessary for
determining the correct cased hole porosity value.

Description
Enter the appropriate chart pair (mud weight and actual borehole
size) for the APS near-to-array apparent limestone porosity (APLU)
or APS near-to-far apparent limestone porosity (FPLU) with the
uncorrected porosity from the APS log by drawing a straight vertical
line (shown in red) through both of the charts. At the intersection
with the mud weight value, move parallel to the closest trend line to
intersect the standard conditions line. This point represents a change
in porosity resulting from the correction for mud weight. Follow the
same procedure for the borehole size chart to determine that correction change. Because the borehole size correction has a dependency
on mud weight, even with natural muds, there are two sets of curves
on the borehole size chartsolid for light muds (8.345 lbm/gal) and
dashed for heavy muds (16 lbm/gal). Intermediate mud weights are
interpolated. The two differences are summed for the total correction to the APS log value.
This answer is used in Chart Neu-11 to complete the environmental corrections for corrected APLU or FPLU porosity.

Purpose
This chart is used to complete the environmental correction for
APLU and FPLU porosities from the APS log.
Description
Enter the left-hand chart on the x-axis with the temperature of the
formation of interest. Move vertically to intersect the appropriate
formation pressure line. From that point, move horizontally rightto
intersect the left edge of the formation salinity chart. Move parallel
to the trend lines to intersect the formation salinity value. Fromthat
point move horizontally to intersect the left edge of the formation
porosity chart. Move parallel to the trend lines to intersect the
uncorrected APLU or FPLU porosity. At that intersection, move
horizontally right to read the apparent porosity correction.
76
Example
Given:
Find:
Answer:
APLU or FPLU porosity = 34 p.u., formation temperature = 150F, formation pressure = 5,000 psi, and formation salinity = 150,000 ppm.
Environmentally corrected APLU or FPLU porosity.
Enter the formation temperature chart at 150F to intersect the 5,000-psi curve. From that point move horizontally right to intersect the left edge of the formation
salinity chart. Move parallel to the trend lines to intersect the formation temperature of 150F. At this point,
again move horizontally to the left edge of the next
chart. Move parallel to the trend lines to intersectthe
34-p.u. porosity line. At that point on the y-axis, the
change in porosity is +1.6 p.u.
The total correction for a corrected APLU or FPLU
from Charts Neu-10 and Neu-11 is
34 + (0.75 + 1) + 1.6 = 33.85 p.u.

Diffusion Correction
Move down vertically from the scale at the top to intersect the
30-p.u. line on the porosity chart. At the intersection point, move
parallel to the closest trend line to intersect the x-axis of the
porosity chart.
The difference between the x-axis value and the raw sigma value
is the diffusion correction (25.3 24 = +1.3 c.u.).
Borehole Correction
Move down vertically from the scale at the top to intersect the 10-in.
borehole size line. At the intersection point, move parallel to the
closest trend line corresponding to the mud salinity to intersect
the x-axis of the borehole correction chart.
The difference between the x-axis value and the raw sigma value
is the borehole correction (22.8 24 = 1.2 c.u.).
Net Correction
The net correction to apply to the raw sigma value is the sum the
three corrections (4.2 + 1.3 + 1.2 = 4.1 c.u.). The environmentally
corrected sigma is the sum of the net correction and the raw sigma
value (24 + 4.1 = 19.9 c.u.).

Description
The top chart has three components: ratio of total CMR porosity
to density porosity (tCMR/D) on the y-axis, (1 Sxo) values on the
x-axis, and h defined by the radiating lines from the value of unity
on the y-axis. Enter the chart with the values for (1 Sxo) and the
tCMR /D ratio. The intersection point indicates the hydrocarbon

Example
Given:
Description
For a known value of resistivity of the borehole mud (Rm) at the zone
of interest, a correction for the recorded log azimuthal resistivity (Ra)
is determined by using this chart. The resistivity measured by the
ARI tool is equal to or higher than the corrected resistivity (Rt) for
borehole sizes of 8 to 12 in. However, the measured ARI resistivity
is lower than Rt in 6-in. boreholes and for values of Ra / Rm between
6 and 600.

Description
Enter the chart on the x-axis with the value of HLLD divided by
the mud resistivity (Rm) at formation temperature. Move upward
to intersect the curve representing the borehole diameter (dh), and
then move horizontally left to read the value of the ratio Rt /HLLD on
the y-axis. Multiply this value by the HLLD value to obtain Rt. Charts

Description
When drilling is at very high angles from vertical, the bit may wander
out of formation. If this occurs, how far the bit must travel to get
back into the formation must be determined.
Enter the chart with the known dip angle of the formation on
the x-axis. Move upward to intersect the appropriate buildup rate

Purpose
This chart is used to correct the raw cased hole resistivity measurement of the CHFR Cased Hole Formation Resistivity tool (Rchfr) for
the thickness of the cement sheath. The resulting value of true resistivity (Rt) is used to calculate the water saturation.
Description
Enter the chart on the x-axis with the ratio of Rchfr and the resistivity
of the cement sheath (Rcem). The value of Rcem is obtained with laboratory measurements. Move upward to the appropriate cement
sheath thickness curve, which represents the annular space between
the outside of the casing and the borehole wall. Move horizontally
left to the y-axis and read the Rt/Rchfr value. Multiply this value by
Rchfr to obtain Rt.
Charts RLl-51 and RLl-52 are for making the correction in larger
casing sizes.

Wellsite Processing
Borehole Correction
The first step of AIT log processing is to correct the raw data from
all eight arrays for borehole effects. Borehole corrections for the AIT
tools are based on inversion through an iterative forward model to
find the borehole parameters that best reproduce the logs from the
four shortest arraysthe 6-, 9-, 12-, and 15-in. arrays (Grove and
Minerbo, 1991). The borehole forward model is based on a solution
to Maxwells equations in a cylindrical borehole of radius r with the
mud resistivity (Rm) surrounded by a homogeneous formation of
resistivity R f. The tool can be located anywhere in the borehole, but
is parallel to the borehole axis at a certain tool standoff (so). The
borehole is characterized by its radius (r). In this model, the signal
in a given AIT array is a function of only these four parameters.
The four short arrays overlap considerably in their investigation depth, so only two of the borehole parameters can be uniquely
determined in an inversion. The others must be supplied by outside
measurements or estimates. Because the greatest sensitivity to the
formation resistivity is in the contrast between Rm and R f, no external measurement is satisfactory for fitting to R f. Therefore, R f is
always solved for. This leaves one other parameter that can be determined. The three modes of the borehole correction operation depend
on whichparameter is being determined:
compute mud resistivity: requires hole diameter and standoff
compute hole diameter: requires a mud resistivity measurement
and standoff
compute standoff: requires hole diameter and mud resistivity
measurement.

where log (z) is the output log conductivity in mS/m, a(n) is the
skin-effect-corrected conductivity from the nth array, and the
weights (w) represent a deconvolution filter applied to each of the
raw array measurements. The log depth is z, and z refers to the
distance above or below the log depth to where the weights are
applied. The skin effect correction consists of fitting the X-signal
to the skin-effect-error signal (Moran, 1964; Barber, 1984) at high
conductivities and the R-signal to the error signal at low conductivi-
Resistivity InductionWireline
(Freedman and Minerbo, 1991, 1993; Zhang et al., 1994). MaximumEntropy Resistivity Log Inversion (MERLIN) processing (Barber et
al., 1999) follows Freedman and Minerbo (1991) closely, and that
paper is the basic reference for the mathematical formulation. The
problem is set up as the simplest parametric model that can fit the
data: a thinly layered formation with each layer the same thickness
(Fig. 2). The inversion problem is to solve for the conductivity of
each layer so that the computed logs from the layered formation
are the closest match to the measured logs.

Invasion Processing
The wellsite interpretation for invasion is a one-dimensional (1D)
inversion of the processed logs into a four-parameter invasion model
(Rxo, Rt, r1, and r2, shown in Fig. 4). The forward model is based on
the Born model of the radial response of the tools and is accurate for
most radial contrasts in which induction logs should be used. The
inversion can be run in real time. The model is also available in the
Invasion Correction module of the GeoFrame* Invasion 2 application,
which also includes the step-invasion model and annulus model (Fig. 4).

Purpose
The charts in this chapter are used to determine the correction for
invasion effects on the following parameters:
If SwA and SwR are equal, the assumption of a step-contact invasion profile is indicated to be correct, and all values determined
(Sw, Rt, Rxo, and di) are considered good.
If SwA > SwR, either invasion is very shallow or a transition-type
invasion profile is indicated, and SwA is considered a good value for Sw.
If SwA < SwR, an annulus-type invasion profile may be indicated,
and a more accurate value of water saturation may be estimated
by using
1 tor of (SwA /SwR)1 4 is
The correction fac4 from the scale.

Purpose
The resistivity values of HALS laterolog deep resistivity (HLLD),
HALS laterolog shallow resistivity (HLLS), and resistivity of the
flushed zone (Rxo) measured by the High-Resolution Azimuthal
Laterolog Sonde (HALS) are used with this chart to determine
values for diameter of invasion (di) and true resistivity (Rt).
Description
The conditions for which this chart is used are listed at the top. The
chart is entered with the ratios of HLLD/HLLS on the x-axis and
HLLD/Rxo on the y-axis. The intersection point defines di on the

Purpose
This chart illustrates the resistivity response, as affected by sand
and shale layers, of the arcVISION tool in horizontal wellbores.
The chart is used to determine the values of Rh and Rv. These
corrections are already applied to the log presentation.
Description
The chart is constructed for shale layers at 90 relative dip to the
axis of the arcVISION tool. That is, both the layers of shale and the
tool are horizontal to the vertical. Other requirements for use of this
chart are that the shale resistivity (Rsh) is 1 ohm-m and the sand
resistivity is 5 or 20 ohm-m.
Select the appropriate chart for the attenuation (Rad) or phaseshift (Rps) resistivity and values of resistivity of the shale (Rsh) and
sand (Rsand). Enter the chart with the volume of shale (Vsh) on the
x-axis and the resistivity on the y-axis. At the intersection point of
these two values move straight downward to the dashed blue curve
to read the value of Rh. Move upward to the solid green curve to read
the value of Rv.
Chart Rt-32 is used to determine Rh and Rv values for the 2-MHz
resistivity.

applied to the log presentation. As the square root of the R v /Rh
ratio increases, the effect on the resistivity significantly increases.
Description
Enter the appropriate chart with the value of the phase-shift or
attenuation resistivity on the y-axis. Move horizontally to intersect
the resistivity spacing curve. At the intersection point read the value
of the square root of the R v /Rh ratio on the x-axis.

Description
Determining the values of t maa and maa to use in the MID Charts
Lith-11 and Lith-12 requires three steps.
First, apparent crossplot porosity is determined using the appropriate neutron-density and neutron-sonic crossplot charts in the
Porosity section of this book. For data that plot above the sandstone curve on the charts, the apparent crossplot porosity is defined
by a vertical projection to the sandstone curve.
Second, enter Chart Lith-9 or Lith-10 with the interval transit
time (t) to intersect the previously determined apparent crossplot
porosity. This point defines t maa.
Third, enter Chart Lith-9 or Lith-10 with the bulk density (b)
to again intersect the apparent crossplot porosity and define maa.
The values determined from Charts Lith-9 and Lith-10 for t maa and
maa are cross plotted on the appropriate MID plot (Charts Lith-11
and Lith-12) to identify the rock mineralogy by its proximity to the
labeled points on the plot.

Charts Lith-11 and Lith-12. With these parameters the identification
of rock mineralogy or lithology through a comparison of neutron,

Purpose
Charts Lith-11 and Lith-12 are used to establish the type of mineral
predominant in the formation.
Description
Enter the appropriate (customary or metric units) chart with
the values established from Charts Lith-9 or Lith-10 to identifythe
predominant mineral in the formation. Salt points are definedfor
two tools, the sidewall neutron porosity (SNP) and the CNL*
Compensated Neutron Log. The presence of secondary porosity
in the form of vugs or fractures displaces the data points parallel
to the apparent matrix internal transit time (t maa ) axis. The presence
of gas displaces points to the right on the chart. Plotting some shale
points to establish the shale trend lines helps in the identification
of shaliness. For fluid density (f) other than 1.0 g/cm3 use the table
to determine the multiplier to correct the apparent total density
porosity before entering Chart Lith-11 or Lith-12.

Purpose
This chart is used to convert sonic log slowness time (t) values
into those for porosity ( .
Description
There are two sets of curves on the chart. The blue set for matrix
velocity (vma) employs a weighted-average transform. The red set
is based on the empirical observation of lithology (see Reference
20). For both, the saturating fluid is assumed to be water with
a velocity (vf) of 5,300 ft/s (1,615 m/s).
Enter the chart with the slowness time from the sonic log on the
x-axis. Move vertically to intersect the appropriate matrix velocity
or lithology curve and read the porosity value on the y-axis. For rock
mixtures such as limy sandstones or cherty dolomites, intermediate
matrix lines may be interpolated.
To use the weighted-average transform for an unconsolidated sand,
a lack-of-compaction correction (Bcp) must be made. Enter the chart
with the slowness time and intersect the appropriate compaction
correction line to read the porosity on the y-axis. If the compaction
correction is not known, it can be determined by working backward
from a nearby clean water sand for which the porosity is known.

Purpose
This chart is used to convert grain density (g/cm3) to density porosity.
Description
Values of log-derived bulk density (b) corrected for borehole size,
matrix density of the formation (ma), and fluid density (f) are used
to determine the density porosity (D) of the logged formation. The
f is the density of the fluid saturating the rock immediately surrounding the boreholeusually mud filtrate.
Enter the borehole-corrected value of b on the x-axis and move
vertically to intersect the appropriate matrix density curve. From the
intersection point move horizontally to the fluid density line. Follow
the porosity trend line to the porosity scale to read the formation
214
porosity as determined by the density tool. This porosity in combination with CNL* Compensated Neutron Log, sonic, or both values of
porosity can help determine the rock type of the formation.

Answer:
PorosityWireline
Description
Enter the x-axis with the corrected near-to-array apparent limestone
porosity (APLC) or near-to-far apparent limestone porosity (FPLC)
and move vertically to the appropriate lithology curve. Then read the
equivalent porosity on the y-axis. For APS porosity recorded in sandstone or dolomite porosity units enter that value on the y-axis and
move horizontally to the recorded lithology curve. Then read the
apparent limestone neutron porosity for that point on the x-axis.
The APLC is the epithermal short-spacing apparent limestone
neutron porosity from the near-to-array detectors. The log is automatically corrected for standoff during acquisition. Because it is
epithermal this measurement does not need environmental corrections for temperature or chlorine effect. However, corrections for
mud weight and actual borehole size should be applied (see Chart
Neu-10). The short spacing means that the effect of density and
therefore the lithology on this curve is minimal.
The FPLC is the epithermal long-spacing apparent limestone neutron porosity acquired from the near-to-far detectors. Because itis
epithermal this measurement does not need environmental corrections for temperature or chlorine effect. However, corrections for
mud weight and actual borehole size should be applied (see Chart
Neu-10). The long spacing means that the density and therefore
lithology effect on this curve is pronounced, as seen on Charts Por-13
and Por-14.

Purpose
This chart is used to determine the lithology and porosity from the
Litho-Density bulk density and APS Accelerator Porosity Sonde porosity
log curves (APLC or FPLC). This chart applies to boreholes filled
with freshwater drilling fluid; Chart Por-14 is used for saltwater fluids.
Description
Enter either the APLC or FPLC porosity on the x-axis and the bulk
density on the y-axis. Use the blue matrix curves for APLC porosity
values and the red curves for FPLC porosity values. Anhydrite plots
on separate curves. The gas correction direction is indicated for
formations containing gas. Move parallel to the blue correction line
if the APLC porosity is used or to the red correction line if the FPLC
porosity is used.

Example
Given:
APLC porosity = 8 p.u. and bulk density = 2.2 g/cm3.
Find:
Approximate quartz sandstone porosity.
Answer:
Enter 8 p.u. on the x-axis and 2.2 g/cm3 on the y-axis
to find the intersection point is in the gas-in-formation
correction region. Because the APLC porosity value was
used, move parallel to the blue gas correction line until
the blue quartz sandstone curve is intersected at approximately 20 p.u.

Description
Connect the apparent neutron porosity value on the appropriate
neutron porosity scale (CNL* Compensated Neutron Log or sidewall
neutron porosity [SNP] log) with the corrected apparent density
porosity on the density scale with a straight line. The intersection
point on the 1 scale indicates the value of 1.
Draw a line from the 1 value to the origin (lower right corner)
of the chart for versus Shr.
Enter the chart with Shr from (Shr = 1 Sxo) and move vertically
upward to determine the porosity correction factor () at the intersection with the line from the 1 scale.
This correction factor algebraically added to the porosity 1 gives
the corrected porosity.

Purpose
This chart is used to identify how much of the measured porosity
is isolated (vugs or moldic) or fractured porosity.
SatOH Description
This chart is based on a simplified model that assumes no contribution to formation conductivity from vugs and moldic porosity and the
cementation exponent (m) of fractures is 1.0.
When the pores of a porous formation have an aspect ratio close
to 1 (vugs or moldic porosity), the value of m of the formation is usually greater than 2. Fractured formations typically have a cementation exponent less than 2.
248
Enter the chart with the porosity () on the x-axis and m on the
y-axis. The intersection point gives an estimate of either the amount
of isolated porosity (iso) or the amount of porosity resulting from
fractures (fr).

Saturation Determination

Purpose
This chart is used to determine water saturation (Sw) in shaly or
clean formations when knowledge of the porosity is unavailable. It
may also be used to verify the water saturation determination from
another interpretation method. The large chart assumes that the
mud filtrate saturation is
Example
Given:
Find:
Answer:
S XO = 5 S W .
The small chart provides an Sxo correction when Sxo is known.
However, water activity correction is not provided for the SP portion
of the chart (see Chart SP-2).
Description
Clean Sands
Enter the large chart with the ratio of the resistivity of the flushed
zone to the true formation resistivity (Rxo /Rt) on the y-axis and the
ratio of the resistivity of the mud filtrate to the resistivity of the formation water (Rmf /Rw) on the x-axis to find the water saturation at
average residual oil saturation (Swa). If Rmf /Rw is unknown, the chart
may be entered with the spontaneous potential (SP) value and the
formation temperature. If Sxo is known, move diagonally upward,
parallel to the constant-Swa curves, to the right edge of the chart.
Then, move horizontally to the known Sxo (or residual oil saturation
[ROS], Sor) value to obtain the corrected value of Sw.
Description
Shaly Sands
Enter the chart with Rxo /Rt and the SP in the shaly sand (EPSP). The
point of intersection gives the Swa value. Draw a line from the charts
origin (the small circle located at Rxo /Rt = Rmf /Rm = 1) through this
point to intersect with the value of static spontaneous potential (ESSP)
to obtain a value of Rxo /Rt corrected for shaliness. This value of Rxo /
Rt versus Rmf /Rw is plotted to find Sw if Rmf /Rw is unknown because
the point defined by Rxo /Rt and ESSP is a reasonable approximation
of Sw. The small chart to the right can be used to further refine Sw if
Sor is known.
Example
Given:
Rxo /Rt = 2.8, Rmf /Rw = 25, EPSP = 75 mV, ESSP = 120 mV,
and electrochemical SP coefficient (Kc) = 80 (formation
temperature = 150F).
Find:
Sw and corrected value for Sor = 10%.
Answer:
Enter the large chart at Rxo/Rt = 2.8 and the intersection
of EPSP = 75 mV at Kc = 80 from the chart below. A line
from the origin through the intersection point (labeled B)
intersects the 120-mV value of ESSP at Point C. Move
horizontally to the left to intersect Rmf /Rw = 25 at Point D.
Then move diagonally to the right to intersect the right
y-axis of the chart. Move horizontally to the small chart to
determine Sxo = 0.9%, Sw = 38%, and corrected Sw = 40%.

Purpose
This chart is used to determine porosity () and gas saturation (Sg)
from the combination of density and neutron or from density and
SatOH resistivity measurements.
Description
Enter from the point of intersection of the matrix density (ma)
and apparent bulk density (b). Move vertically upward to intersect
either neutron porosity (N, corrected for lithology) or the ratio of
true resistivity to connate water resistivity (R t /Rw). This point defines
the actual porosity and Sg on the curves.
Oil saturation (So) can also be determined if all three measurements (density, neutron, and resistivity) are available. Find the values
of and Sg as before, and then find the intersection of R t /R w with
to read the value of the total hydrocarbon saturation (Sh) on the
saturation scale for use in the following equations:

Purpose
This nomograph is used to define flushed zone saturation (Sxo) in
the rock immediately adjacent to the borehole by using the EPT
Electromagnetic Propagation Tool time measurement (tpl).
Description
Use of this chart requires knowledge of the reservoir lithology or
matrix propagation time (tpma), saturating water propagation time
(tpw), porosity (), and expected hydrocarbon type. Enter the far-left
scale with tpl and move parallel to the diagonal lines to intersect the
appropriate tpma value. From this point move horizontally to the right
edge of the scale grid. From this point, extend a straight line through
the porosity scale to the center scale grid; again, move parallel to the
diagonal lines to the appropriate tpma value and then horizontally to
the right edge of the grid scale. From this point, extend a straight
line through the intersection of tpw and the hydrocarbon type point
SatOH
to intersect the Sxo scale. For more information, see Reference 25.

Purpose
This nomograph is used to determine the flushed zone saturation
(Sxo) in the rock immediately adjacent to the borehole by using the
EPT Electromagnetic Propagation Tool attenuation measurement.
It requires knowledge of the saturating fluid (usually mud filtrate)
SatOH
attenuation (Aw), porosity (), and the EPT EATT attenuation
(AEPTcor) corrected for spreading loss.
Description
The value of Aw must first be determined. Chart Gen-16 is used to
estimate Aw by using the equivalent water salinity and formation
temperature. EPT-D spreading loss is determined from the inset on
Chart Gen-16 based on the uncorrected EPT propagation time (tpl)
measurement. The spreading loss correction algebraically added to
the EPT-D EATT attenuation measurement gives the corrected EPT
attenuation (AEPTcor). These values are used with porosity on the
nomograph to determine Sxo.

Given:
Find:
Answer:
EATT = 250 dB/m, tpl = 10.9 ns/m, = 28 p.u., water salinity = 20,000 ppm, and bottomhole temperature = 150F.
Spreading loss (from Chart Gen-16 inset) and Sxo.
The spreading loss determined from the inset on
Chart Gen-16 is 82 dB/m.
AEPTcor = 250 82 = 168 dB/m.
Aw (from Chart Gen-16) = 1,100 dB/m.
Enter the far-left scale at Aw = 1,100 dB/m and draw
a straight line through = 28 p.u. on the next scale to
intersect the median line. From this intersection point,
draw a straight line through AEPTcor = 168 dB/m on the
next scale to intersect the Sxo value on the far-right
scale. Sxo = 56 p.u.

Procedure
Shaly Formation
The Sw determination in a shaly formation requires additional information: sigma shale (sh) read from the TDT log in adjacent shale,
Vsh from porosity-log crossplot or gamma ray, shale porosity sh) read
from a porosity log in adjacent shale, and the porosity corrected for
shaliness (shcor) with the relation for neutron and density logs
in liquid-filled formations of shcor = log Vshsh.
Enter the value of ma on Scale B and draw Line 1 to intersect
with Pivot Point A. From the value of sh on Scale A, draw Line 2
through the intersection of Line 1 and Vsh to determine the shalecorrected cor on Scale B. Draw Line 3 from cor to the value of ma
on the scale to the left of Scale C. Enter log on Scale B and draw
Line 4 through the intersection of Line 3 and the value of to determine f on Scale C. From f on Scale C, draw Line 5 through the
intersection of h and w to determine Sw on Scale D.

Description
To construct the grid, refer to the example chart on this page. Three
fluid points must be located: free-water point (wf), hydrocarbon
point (h), and a bound-water point (wb). The free- (or connate formation) water point is located on the left y-axis and can be obtained
from measurement of a formation water sample, from Charts Gen-12
and Gen-13 if the water salinity is known, or from the TDT log in
aclean water-bearing sand by using the following equation:

The hydrocarbon point is also located on the left y-axis of the grid.
It can be determined from Chart Gen-14 based on the known or
expected hydrocarbon type.
The bound-water point (Swb) can be obtained from the TDT log
in shale intervals also by using the wa equation. It is located on the
right y-axis of the grid.
The distance between the free-water and hydrocarbon points is
linearly divided into lines of constant water saturation drawn parallel
to a straight line connecting the free-water and bound-water points.
The Swt = 0% line originates from the hydrocarbon point, and the
Swt = 100% line originates from the free-water point.
The value of wa from the equation is plotted versus Swb to give
Swt. The value of Swb can be estimated from the gamma ray or other
bound-water saturation estimator.
Once Swt and Swb are known, the water saturation ofthe reservoir
rock exclusive of shale can be determined using

Charts Perm-1 and Perm-2 can be used to recognize zones at irreducible water saturation, for which the product Swi from levels within
the zone is generally constant and plots parallel to the Swi lines.
Perm

The charts are valid only for zones at irreducible water saturation.
Enter porosity () and Swi on a chart. Their intersection defines
the intrinsic (absolute) rock permeability (k). Medium-gravity oil is
assumed. If the saturating hydrocarbon is other than medium-gravity
oil, a correction factor (C) based on the fluid densities of water and
hydrocarbons (w and h, respectively) and elevation above the freewater level (h) should be applied to the Swi value before it is entered
on the chart. The chart on this page provides the correction factor
based on the capillary pressure:
pc =
2.3
Enter the correction factor chart with Swi = 30% to intersect the curve for pc = 40 (nearest to 42), for which the
correction factor is 1.08. The corrected Swi value is Swi =
1.08 30% = 32.4%.

Purpose
This chart is used to estimate ease of movement through a formation
by a fluid.
Description
The mobility-added slowness, which is the difference between the
Stoneley slowness and the calculated elastic Stoneley slowness, is
plotted on the x-axis and the mobility of the fluid is on the y-axis. The
membrane impedance curves represent the effect that the mudcake
has on the determination of the mobility of the fluid in the formation.
The membrane impedance is scaled in gigapascal per centimeter.

Example
Given:
Log amplitude reading = 3.5 mV in zone of interest
and 1.0 mV in a well-bonded section (usually the lowest
millivolt value on the log), casing size = 7 in. at
29 lbm/ft, casing thickness = 0.41 in., and neat cement
(not foamed).
Find:
Compressive strength and bond index of the cement at the
time of logging.
Answer:
Enter the 3.5-mV reading on the left y-axis of Chart
Cem-1 and proceed to the 7-in. casing line.
Move horizontally to intersect the right-hand y-axis at
8.9 dB/ft.
Determine the casing thickness as (7 6.184)/2 = 0.816/2
= 0.41 in. Draw a line from 8.9 dB/ft through the 0.41-in.
casing thickness point to the compressive strength scale.
Cement compressive strength = 2,100 psi.
To find the bond index, determine the decibel attenuation of the
lowest recorded log value by entering 1.0 mV on the left-hand y-axis
and proceeding to the 7-in. casing line. Move horizontally to intersect
the right-hand y-axis at 12.3 dB/ft.
Divide the precisely determined decibel attenuation for the CBL
amplitude in the zone of interest by this value for the lowest millivolt
value: 8.9/12.3 = 72% bond index.
A 72% bond index means that 72% of the casing is bonded. This
is not a well-bonded zone because a value of 80% bonding over a 10-ft
interval is historically considered well bonded. Although the logging
scale is a linear millivolts scale, the decibel attenuation scale is logarithmic. The millivolts log scale for the CBL value cannot rescaled
in percent of bonding. If it were, the apparent percent bonding
would be 65% because most bond log scales are from 0 to 100 mV
reading from left to right, over 10 divisions of track 1, or conversely
100% to 0% cement bonding for 0 mV = 100% bonding and
100 mV = 0% bonding.

To convert height h of a column of mercury at t C to the equivalent height h 0 at 0C, use h 0 = h {1 [(m l ) t / 1 + mt]}, where m = 0.0001818 and l = 18.4 106 if the scale is
engraved on brass; l = 8.5 106 if on glass. This assumes the scale is correct at 0C; for other cases (any liquid) see International Critical Tables, Vol. 1, 68.
