Mud Logging Introduction

What is Mud Logging?

What are the Benefits of Mud Logging?

Take a Walk through a Typical Mud Logging

What is Mud Logging?Mud Logging provides subsurface geological information while drilling a well.

What is Mud Logging?Mud Logging is the examination and analysis of geological information contained in formation cuttings and drilling mud to determine if oil and gas are encountered during drilling a well. Mud Logging also is used to provide critical safety functions such as determining pore pressures, kick control and ambient gas monitoring.

What is Mud Logging?

The service requires two to six people at the wellsite, a mobile laboratory unit, acting as the information center for the well and m a y i n c l u d e t h e e l e c t r o n i c monitoring of drilling parameters and third party service provider data. Communication

is essential

What are the Benefits of Mud Logging?Mud Loggers analyze geological data and drilling parametersto identify and quantify potentially productive hydrocarbon reserves, subsurface formation porosity and formation fractures. Mud Loggers also analyze the drilling parameters in conjunction with the formation analysis in order to provide recommendations to improve drilling rates, reduce costs and enhance safety.

EQUIPMENT & TECHNOLOGY

CNLC mud logging services are focused on adding value for our clients through the intelligent use of quality data. People are the number one factor in our success, however the technology and equipment which is at their disposal has played a very important role in building our reputation for reliability and quality.

Logging UnitUnit dimension is 8 × 2.7 × 3mEmergency escape hatch and double door airlock entry.Safety system: smoke detector, poisonous gas alarm.Two super air-conditions to maintain stable temperature within the unit.Adequate working space is provided for CompanymanUPS System Two extinguishers are equipped for fire.

Geological Analysis

The unit contains a complete set of geological analysis equipment including Stereo Microscope, Fluoroscope and some associated Parts, like sample bags, chemical, Sieves, etc.

Cloth bags and paper clasp sample envelopes

Data Acquisition system

We use sensors to acquire the parameters, use on-line computers to monitor current rig activity. The unit also can transmit data in real-time to the operator’s office. An in-finite number of direct or calculated measurements can be monitored so that an alarm activates against a high, low and a rate of range.

Chromatographs and Gas detectors

All mud logging units of CNLC use FID detector to detect hydrocarbon which are acquired from mud following in the ditch. This detector have high accuracy and sensitivity. Meanwhile, we use the integrator or wintegratortor automatically calculate acquiring digital total gas and chromatograph data for display, print, plot and storage.

Hydrocarbon Evaluation

The order of hydrocarbon shows description is:Odor (type and strength)Oil stain or bleeding (distribution, intensity, color)Sample fluorescence (percentage, intensity, color)Cut color fluorescence (speed, character, intensity and color)Cut color and intensityCut residue (intensity and color)

Oil Shows Description:Oil stain: percentage, type, colorDirectly fluorescence: percentage, color, intensity.Cut fluorescence: speed, patten, color.Residue: percentage, type.

OdorOdor may range from heavy, characteristic of low gravity oil, to light and penetrating, for condensate. Some dry gases have no odor. Report its strength as good, fair or faint.

Staining and BleedingThe amount of oil staining on cuttings and cores is primarily a function of the distribution of the porosity and the oil distribution within the pores. The color of the stain is related to oil gravity. Heavy oil stains tend to be a dark brown, while light oil stains tend to be colorless.

Directly fluorescence under UltraViolet box

Sample fluorescenceColor: from brown through green, gold, blue,

yellow, to white; in most instances, the heavier oils have darker fluorescence.

Distribution: even, spotted, or mottled Intensity: bright, dull, pale, and faint.

Cut fluorescence under UV box

Solvent:Solvent:ChloroformChloroform

Solvent Cut Fluorescence

Cut speed: an indication of both the solubility of the oil and the permeability of the sample. Cut nature: the solvent with dissolved oil may occur in uniform, streaming or blooming. A streaming cut also indicates low oil mobility.Cut color and intensity: After observing the sample under UV light observe the sample under natural light. The cut color observed in natural light is just called cut color (example: very light brown cut color or no cut color).

Cut Residue:The solvent dissolves rapidly under the heat of the UV light, sometimes leaving a residue of oil around the cutting on the spot plate. The true color of the oil can then be observed. The intensity and opacity of color, especially of the residue, is an indicator of the oil density and the quantity of oil originally in the cutting.

Another way to analysis hydrocarbon bearing-- Gas Analysis

If the formation bear the hydrocarbon, when the bit crash the formation, the hydrocarbon inside will flow out and mix with mud. Use the special equipment it can be broken the hydrocarbon away from the mud and analysis inside the unit.
