1 FORMATION EVALUATION PETE 663 SHALY SAND EVALUATION - B Summer 2010
2 SHALY FORMATION ISSUES Water Saturation
3 Obstacles with Shaly Sands Fresh formation water can cause conventional analysis to overestimate water saturation Salty formation water can cause low resistivity, meaning pay zones can be bypassed Thin beds may lead conventional log analysis to underestimate porosity and overestimate water saturation
4 SHALY FORMATION ISSUES LECTURE A Shales/clays have several origins and forms Shales/clays affect: Porosity Permeability Vshale Estimations Assumptions Log responses LECTURE B Shales conduct electricity Problems with Archie-based methods Rwa problem Sw errors

21 WATER SATURATION SHALY SANDS
22 Shaly Formation Issues Water Saturation Shales/clays have several origins and forms Vshale Estimation Assumptions Log responses Shales/clays affect formation Permeability Porosity Shales conduct electricity Problems with Archie-based methods Rwa problem Sw errors
23 WATER SATURATION EQUATIONS Many different water saturation equations have been developed Archie s model for a clean formation is: n w S = FR R t All other models are for shaly formations where the rock is not a perfect insulator w
24 With shale C C = w + o F X C o X 1 F C w The factor X is the excess conductivity caused by the fact that the clays and shales are conductors of current
25 Commonly used formulas to account for shale: Vsh Models Simandeaux (better with saline fm water) Indonesia (developed for fresher fm water) Double-layer model (Attempt to avoid using Vsh) Waxman-Smits Dual water
26 CO vs CW in Shaly and Clean Sands Non-Linear Region (Indonesian Equation) Linear Region (Simandoux Equation) CO Slope = 1 / F CW Modified from Halliburton, EL-1007
27 Cw/Co Variation with Cw and Vcl Clean Sand, F = aφ -m CW CO CW Modified from Halliburton, EL-1007
28 Archie n w m e w t S A C C φ = ( ) sh sh n w sh n w m e w t C V S V A S C C = φ Simandeaux (better with saline water) All V sh models are similar: total C = clean C + shale C Indonesia (better with fresh water) 2 / 2) / ( 1 2 / n w sh V sh n w w t S C V S F C C sh + =
29 Waxman-Smits model C t = C ' w φ m t A S n wt Where: C ' = C + w w BQ S v wt Note independent conduction paths by free water and bound water
30 New terms BQ V : conductivity of bound water Q V : cation exchange capacity (meq/gm dry clay) 1 meq = 6E20 atoms measures how many cations are present different clays have different CEC s kaolinite 0.03 to 0.06 chlorite 0 to 0.1 illite 0.1 to 0.4 montmorillonite 0.8 to 1.5 B is: specific counterion conductivity (mho/m per meq/cc) Counterions are the charge-balancing Na cations B is a per unit measure Measures how effectively cations conduct electricity
31 Waxman-Smits Swt obtained by iteration S wti+ 1 = 1 R w + ( BQ S ) wti where Swt 0 is the initial guess, Swt 1 is the next guess, etc., and F B Note: R w in B equation is at 75 F. F R t A = φ m t [ ( 0. 5 R )] = e w B max v 1 n
32 Maximum Equivalent Conductance of Sodium-Exchange Ions, λ NA or B max vs Temperature λ NA or B max, mho - cm -2 mca Temperature, C
33 Graphing values of B max vs. temperature ( R and/or F) on various types of graph paper, one finds that B max vs. log (T R) is more or less linear: B max = (51.31)ln T R ( )
34 Approximate values for Q v are: Very shaly Q v =1.5 Moderate shale Q v =1.0 Medium shale Q v =0.5 Low shale Q v =0.25 No shale Q v =0 CEC or Q v should, however, be lab measured Q v may correlate with logs (e.g., GR)
35 Dual water model C t = C w m t φ A S n wt where C w = S S b wt C wb + 1 S S The dual-water model is a more general form of the Waxman-Smits model. The free water salinity can be different than the salinity of the claybound water. To determine Sw, use iterative method, like W-S b wt C wf
