CWLS20SC NMR Logging Methods


This is a half day course which will provide an update and overview on Magnetic Resonance Logging methods.  Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Logging has made major strides since the first commercial pulsed-echo NMR log was recorded in June of 1991.  This half day course reviews the progress that has been made since then, with the evolution of NMR applications from a simple porosity measurement to the complex fluid identification methods used today.  Current NMR logging tools are reviewed including the newest tools.  The types of NMR applications from reservoir characterization to fluid identification will be reviewed as well as the range of application for each tool.  Industry acceptance of NMR logging, exciting new interpretation methods that are on the horizon, and future trends will also be discussed.
