Calculation of Porosity and CO Content in CO-Bearing Gas Formations Based on Density and Neutron Logging Forward and Inverse Methods.

When the gas reservoir contains CO, the logging response tends to be complex. When calculating porosity with neutron and density curves, the accuracy of porosity calculation is reduced due to the uncertainty of fluid parameters, which in turn affects the evaluation of CO content. It increases the uncertainty of reserve evaluation. In this paper, a forward modeling model of density logging is established based on the equivalent volume model, and the method of neutron logging is formed by putting forward the nonlinear formula of the reciprocal of the comprehensive deceleration length. The key parameters and their variation rules of neutron logging and density logging forward modeling under different temperature and pressure conditions are obtained by experimental means and Monte Carlo method, respectively. The variation law of the influence of different CO content on neutron logging and density logging curves is simulated. The research shows that with the increase of CO content, the neutron logging value of gas reservoir decreases, while the density logging value increases, and the greater the porosity of gas reservoir, the more obvious this change trend is. Compared with CH, CO has a more significant impact on the excavation effect of neutron logging. On this basis, combined with the conductivity model of the study area, the porosity and CO content of CO bearing gas reservoir are solved by the least-square method. The practice shows that the relative error of porosity calculation is within ±4% and the error of CO content calculation is within ±10%, which proves the reliability of this method.
