George King is a technology provider in the oil and gas industry specializing in new technology and problem oil well solutions.
A sound recording downhole. Best performance of noise logs is with gas flow. Gas flow can be heard to about 10 actual ft3/D (Note – not standard ft3/day). At very low gas flow rates (q<400 actual ft3/D), gas flow can be estimated from millivolts of noise between the 200-Hz and 600-Hz frequencies: q = 0.35 (N200 – N600). Where q is the actual gas flow in ft3 and N = noise log cut at that frequency.
Industry:Oil & gas
A source rock in with sufficient heat and other inputs to produce hydrocarbons.
Industry:Oil & gas
A special resistivity tool that measures the resistivity of the mud cake on one curve and the resistivity of the fluids in the formation, but near the wellbore, on a different curve. Separation between the curves is an indication of permeability since mud cake builds on permeable zones.
Industry:Oil & gas
A special truck equipped with a small pump and an inhibitor checmical tank used to treat wells on a scheduled basis.
Industry:Oil & gas
A special, often large string of tubulars that are used during the completion of the well. Usually higher pressure capacity or allow higher weights than the production tubing.
Industry:Oil & gas
A specially designed perforating charge that is designed to punch through only one string of pipe and not damage the outer string. Useful for establishing a circulation path in a well with collapsed or plugged tubing prior to killing the well.
