George King is a technology provider in the oil and gas industry specializing in new technology and problem oil well solutions.
A log that uses radioactive tracer to monitor fluid movement in the wellbore or measure losses from the wellbore.
Industry:Oil & gas
A log whose source emits neutrons into the formation. Neutrons interact with hydrogen nuclei resulting in an energy loss that is converted to neutron porosity. All hydrocarbons and water contain hydrogen, but the formation usually does not. The amount of hydrogen in the gas affects the reading, so gas filled porosity shows a lower log porosity than oil or water filled porosity.
Industry:Oil & gas
A log-log plot of resistivity (x-axis) vs. porosity. Helps determine which zones contain hydrocarbon.
Industry:Oil & gas
A log-log plot that is very useful in predicting when the fracture is in tip-screen-out mode and whether the fracture is being widened or height growth is occurring.
Industry:Oil & gas
A long tube used in well fire fighting operations to move all the fluids and the fire up above the damaged wellhead. May also be used to put out the fire in some cases.
Industry:Oil & gas
A LOT or an FIT test (check specifics for details), a pressurized test after primary cementing to make sure the bottom most seal with the formation will handle pressures needed for drilling the rest of the well.
Industry:Oil & gas
A low alloy steel, containing a mass fraction maximum of 2% carbon, 1.65% manganese and residual quantities of other materials. Common in pipe manufacture.
