Petrophysics of the Metamorphic and Igneous Rocks

A large number of the world's oil reserves have been found in naturally fractured reservoir rocks.

A significant proportion of these reservoirs has been discovered in basement settings which are

commonly distributed in various petroliferous regions throughout the world.

The occurrence of naturally fractured basement reservoirs has been known within the

hydrocarbon industry for many years.

Despite this, these reservoirs had been considered for a long time as non productive.

However, recently many explorationists on the light of new production methods have focused

again their attention on these reservoir types.

A greater understanding of the fracture distribution and connectivity within basement reservoirs

may prove to be the key tool for improved exploration and production management of this

hidden resource.

GeoNeurale proposes a new course, a brilliant approach of Dr. Pechnig to help and understand

the Petrophysics of these complex formations.

A key discipline for the genetic study of clastic rocks and the classification of clay /sandstone relationships in their structural and electrical related properties: Laminar/Dispersed/Structural Shales, their mineralogical composition. Clay conductivity and salinity of water components. Possible presence of outlier elements affecting log responses both in clastic and carbonate reservoirs. Improved dataset for statistical studies. Help the optimization on input models for both deterministic and multimineral analysis .

Petrophysics of the Metamorphic and Igneous Rocks

DAY 1

1) Overview to igneous and metamorphic rocks (terminology, main rock

types, mineralogy, geochemistry, genetic evolution, fabric and structure,

types of alteration)

2) Overview to the petrophysical characteristics of crystalline rocks

(rock density, rock porosity, permeability, elastic properties, electrical

properties, natural radioactivity, magnetic properties, thermal properties).

DAY 2

3) Log responses in crystalline rocks (GR, Spectral Gamma, SP, Sonic, Neutron, Density, PEF,

Resistivity, Suszeptibility, Magnetic Field, geochemical logs, NMR and Images); Examples

are given from exploration wells in the continental crust, oceanic crust and volcanic settings

(single volcanoes and LIPs Large Igneous Provinces such as Deccan, Kerguelen and Snake

River).

The examples cover the whole range of typical rock types of the different settings (e.g.

gabbros, basalts, diorites, granites, aplites, lamprophyres, amphibolites, orthogneisses,

paragneisses, subaerial and submarine lava flows, pillows and different types of

volcaniclastics).

4) Lithology prediction from log data (cross-plot techniques, rock type prediction, electrofacies

methods, multi-mineral analysis, workflows for magmatic, volcanic and metamorphic

environments)

DAY 3

5) Structure identification in crystalline rocks (fractures, fabric, internal structures) - use of

standard logs and image logs in crystalline environments correlation with core description

(what can be seen by image logs)

6) Petrophysics of crystalline rocks (porosity prediction in crystalline rocks: standard method –

use and limitations, porosity and permeability in metamorphic, plutonic and volcanic

rocks, core-log integration, comparison of in-situ and laboratory data, effects of fabrics

(e.g. gneiss foliation) and internal structure (e.g. lava flow vescicularity) on physical properties.

7) The program is accompanied by case studies and exercises.
