Determination of the lithological composition of sedimentary rocks for the construction of a volumetric model according to GIS data

The features of the lithological composition of productive sediments and their consideration in the petrophysical modeling of a volumetric model based on a GIS complex are considered. It is noted that on the basis of X-ray spectral and granulometric analysis, it is possible to obtain reliable information about the structure, texture, component and mineral composition in order to clarify the petrophysical characteristics of the rocks under study. Using the example of two hydrocarbon deposits “K” and “N” the results of determining the lithological composition of sedimentary rocks from core from different age terrigenous deposits are discussed in order to build a petrophysical model of the entire well section, taking into account the areas of lack of information from direct studies (sludge and core). Electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis are used to study finely dispersed (clay, siliceous, carbonate, etc.) rocks, which are especially important for accurate diagnosis of the mineral composition of rocks. In addition to the features of the geological structure of the deposit, the quantity and quality of the initial information largely determine the methods of constructing the model and the results obtained. The results of X-ray spectral analysis made it possible to determine the composition of chemical elements and the amount of each element in the sample. Information about the mineral composition of rocks and the lithological differences identified at the first stage are distributed to the part of the section where there is no or insufficient information on the core or sludge. The information obtained on the lithological composition of sediments gives the most complete picture of the geological structure of the section opened by the well and is further used as the basis of a volumetric model based on the data of geophysical surveys of GIS wells.

Abstract

The features of the lithological composition of productive sediments and their consideration in the petrophysical modeling of a volumetric model based on a GIS complex are considered. It is noted that on the basis of X-ray spectral and granulometric analysis, it is possible to obtain reliable information about the structure, texture, component and mineral composition in order to clarify the petrophysical characteristics of the rocks under study. Using the example of two hydrocarbon deposits “K” and “N” the results of determining the lithological composition of sedimentary rocks from core from different age terrigenous deposits are discussed in order to build a petrophysical model of the entire well section, taking into account the areas of lack of information from direct studies (sludge and core). Electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis are used to study finely dispersed (clay, siliceous, carbonate, etc.) rocks, which are especially important for accurate diagnosis of the mineral composition of rocks. In addition to the features of the geological structure of the deposit, the quantity and quality of the initial information largely determine the methods of constructing the model and the results obtained. The results of X-ray spectral analysis made it possible to determine the composition of chemical elements and the amount of each element in the sample. Information about the mineral composition of rocks and the lithological differences identified at the first stage are distributed to the part of the section where there is no or insufficient information on the core or sludge. The information obtained on the lithological composition of sediments gives the most complete picture of the geological structure of the section opened by the well and is further used as the basis of a volumetric model based on the data of geophysical surveys of GIS wells.
