Fast, nearly automatic log interpretation for completion decisionsOperators require fast, objective, and reliablelog interpretation to help make completiondecisions. A nearly automatic service forprocessing data from modern spectroscopyand conventional logging tools is the answer.
There has long been a need for a petro-physical answer, comprising at least poros-ity and water saturation, in real time orwithin a few hours of logging. Attempts toprovide such a product have been hamperedby the necessity of defining numerousparameters and well zonations manually.That process required the timely availabilityof a skilled interpreter or an establisheddatabase for the reservoir or formation.
A preferable approach is to determine asmany parameters as possible automatically.With the introduction of elemental concen-tration logs and SpectroLith quantitativelithology processing, mineralogy and matrixparameters can be derived automaticallywith greater accuracy and with much lesssubjectivity than possible with conventional,time-consuming techniques using onlytriple-combo logs. The number of inputparameters required is therefore reduceddramatically, to only formation water salinity in the optimum case.
Using detailed petrophysical evaluation available only minutes after logging, key decision-makers can collaboratefrom anywhere in the world with secure Web-based access.
Get petrophysical interpretation within minutes after logging—at the wellsite or anywhere else it’s needed.The DecisionXpress service integratesdata from the Platform Express* inte-grated wireline logging tool and uniqueECS* Elemental Capture Spectroscopyservices in a powerful interpretation software program.
The stand-alone, PC-basedDecisionXpress Viewer application provides rapid data visualization andreprocessing capabilities with minimaluser inputs, and it delivers a robustpetrophysical evaluation in sand-shalereservoirs through the secure Web-based InterACT* real-time monitoringand data delivery system.
Applications include planning of coringand sampling operations; decisions forcasing, drilling ahead, or sidetracking; andthe design of completion strategies.
The basis for the DecisionXpress serviceFundamental to the new DecisionXpresssolution are the mineralogy and matrixproperties derived from ECS-measuredelemental concentrations and SpectroLithprocessing. This information removesmost of the subjectivity in conventionallog interpretation and supports accurateand consistent evaluation results.
At each depth level the processing flowslinearly, starting with the mineralogy andmatrix properties and proceeding throughthe computation of matrix-corrected poros-ity, permeability, and fluid saturations.
The entire computation is performed inminutes after data acquisition, and in mostsituations the computation requires theselection of only one parameter, forma-tion water salinity. The results provide all the log-derived inputs needed for deci-sions on completions, pressure and fluidsampling, and sidewall core sampling.
Unlike conventional products thatmust be adapted to specific environments,DecisionXpress results are accurate andreliable in most siliciclastic reservoirsaround the world.

The enabling technologies Schlumberger can provide advancedpetrophysical evaluation in near-realtime, with quality control on data inputand interpretation output, through theintegration of ECS capture gamma rayspectroscopy data and Platform Expresstriple-combo measurements. The accu-racy of ECS measurements is relativelyinsensitive to mud weight, most fluidtypes, borehole size, and rugosity.
SpectroLith quantitative lithology,which differentiates the DecisionXpressservice from other interpretation meth-ods, is based on processing the elementalrelative yields through an oxides closuremodel to produce quantitative elementalconcentration logs. This step is followedby processing through element-to-mineraland element-to-matrix property trans-forms developed from a high-quality core database.
The SpectroLith process uses meas-urements of silicon, calcium, and iron to produce as accurate an estimation of clay as is possible from a direct meas-urement of aluminum. Carbonate con-centrations are determined from thecalcium concentration log with an accu-racy that is not available from loggingdevices that do not measure elementalconcentrations. Matrix properties, includ-ing density, neutron porosity, and sigma,are also calculated from the dry-weightelemental concentrations.
The introduction of the PlatformExpress tool was a major advancementin wireline logging technology. Comparedwith a conventional triple-combo tool,the Platform Express integrated wirelinelogging tool is twice as fast, gives betteranswers, and is more cost effective torun because it requires significantly lessrig time. The system upgrades and expandstraditional resistivity and porosity meas-urements, includes high-resolution micro-resistivity measurements and imaging,and measures tool movement for real-time speed correction and automaticdepth matching with the ECS sonde.
