Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements offer a means of quantifying organic and inorganic porosity by separating the inorganic porosity, where proton relaxation occurs by paramagnetic interactions, from the organic porosity, where proton relaxation occurs by intermolecular dipole interactions. We performed laboratory measurements on preserved Bakken and Eagle Ford samples with a 2.2 MHz nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) core analysis system. Additional measurements were performed on a Barnett sample in the as-received state. We constructed two-dimensional maps of T1 and T2 with different echo spacings for the T2 measurement and computed distributions of T1/T2 ratio and the secular relaxation rate, which is the difference between the transverse and longitudinal relaxation rates. Based on the distribution of T1/T2 ratios and the change in secular relaxation rate with echo spacing, we were able to differentiate organic porosity, inorganic porosity, and the relaxation signal from the organic material itself. The differentiation is based on theoretical consideration of relaxation times due to paramagnetic and dipole interactions. The T2 values we found for the organic material and associated porosity are generally shorter than 1 ms while the T1 values are generally 1 10 ms, indicating that T1 measurements may be a feasible means of quantifying organic material downhole.

3 Key points Shales are challenging for 1 H NMR because hydrocarbons are present as liquids and (semi)solids Relaxation times at pore walls vary in predictable ways depending on the type of pore wall material (inorganic or organic) We can combine standard relaxation time measurements and separate the pore space into inorganic & organic porosity
4 NMR relaxation mechanisms 1. Intermolecular dipolar coupling 2. Intramolecular dipolar coupling 3. Interactions with Bulk relaxation paramagnetic ions on pore wall (Surface relaxation) 4. Diffusion in internal field gradients (Diffusion relaxation) (T 2 only) In general, T 1 T 2

7 Key differences in shales (for NMR) Pores are very small Porosity in organic and inorganic matter Viscous hydrocarbons present These differences can be used to our advantage.
