Aberdeen Formation Evaluation Society

December Monthly AFES Meeting

?Happy New Years? to all our members & friends, and a belated thanks to our December speaker Logan Tippett from Weatherford for his very interesting discussion on slimhole formation sampling and pressure testing. Many thanks Logan!

AFES Meeting: 12th December, 2018

Abstract: This presentation is intended to highlight a reduced risk approach for obtaining PVT samples on Wireline.  By combining a slim formation tester with the ability to run through the inside of Drill Pipe, it becomes possible to obtain fluid samples without several risks inherent to running Wireline.  This technique has been successfully used for…

November Monthly AFES Meeting

Many thanks to Carlos Maeso for his interesting presentation on technology advances in borehole imaging while drilling in oil based mud environments and case study examples.

AFES Meeting: 14th November, 2018

Abstract: Borehole image logs are widely used for lithofacies characterization, structural analysis and geomechanics. Until recently, obtaining high-resolution images in oil-base mud while drilling has been challenging. This has been overcome by a new LWD tool which implements a dual physics approach (including both resistivity and ultrasonic images). The methods used to acquire these images…

September Monthly AFES Meeting

Many thanks to Ebrahim Heydari for his interesting discussion and case study presentation on rock typing, showing its importance in successful reservoir modeling and the value to field development and water injection projects.

AFES Meeting: 12th September, 2018

Abstract: The ultimate objective of rock typing is to drive a framework for rock property distribution within 3D reservoir models that both honours the well data and predicts reservoir properties in un-cored wells and between wells (Hollis et al., 2010). Rock typing is an important input to successful reservoir study, drilling, production and water injection.…
