This document discusses methods for determining lithology, or rock type, from well log data. It describes using crossplots of neutron-density, neutron-sonic, and sonic-density measurements to classify rocks as sandstone, limestone, or dolomite. Ternary plots are also used to classify rocks and identify zones of quartz, gas, secondary porosity, or shale. The logs from the well indicate the formation is primarily limestone with some sandstone, no gypsum or shale, and some zones of secondary porosity from fractures.

Mohammed Dakhel Mohammed Hussain Sameer Ghafel Mortaza Muhalhal Ehmood LETHOLOGY • Determining the type of rock is very important because from the quality of the rocks, we choose the type of hoof, the type of labeling, and the completion. • GR,SP is used to determine the type of lithology.
• Porosity consists of the density log, which determines the
density in the rock formation. • sonic where we determine the porosity by the speed of the wave transmission also depends on the density. • Neutron depends on identifying hydrogen atoms in the fluid in the rock and gives a direct reading of the porosity. It gives low readings in rocks of high density that are not wetted by reservoir fluids • Cross plot is the best method for calculating lithology.
• The neutron density crossplot is provided for clean fully liquid-saturated
formations and holes • filled with water or water based mud. As water-filled porosity increases, three different locations could be • traced out for differing travel times and matrix densities for the three principal matrices. A • considerable confusion in the ascribed lithology caused by a little uncertainty in the measured pair • (sonic-bulk density cross-plot) means the contrast between the matrix endpoints is not a great deal. In • In addition, depending on the type of sonic transform used, there is a large difference as well. The • Following Figure illustrating the neutron-density cross plot, the separation between sandstone, • limestone and dolomite lines indicate good resolution for these lithologies. • Schlumberger created a set of graphs:
Top sandstone
Middle limestone
Last dolomite
According to the results that appear, I know the
type of lithology M-N PLOT . TERNARY POROSITY MODEL • Connect 3 devices together density, sonic ,neutron.
• Dol, Lm, Anh triangle.
• Qtz quartz zone _ sandstone. • Gas_ gas area. • Secondary porosity _ that is mean in This area there are fractures. • The lower arae is the shale zone • Majority of points located on limestone line. • With a high percentage of sandstone. • As for the shale, its percentage is very small. • Majority of points located between limestone lime and dolomite lime
• The presence of a large percentage of
sandstone and limestone points • Majority of points located at Qtz zone which mean it is a sandstone zone. • No gypsum . • No shale. • Secondary porosity _the area has freactures.
