SIPES San Antonio Chapter May Meeting will be this Thursday, 18 May 2023, at 11:30 a.m. in the Petroleum Club of San Antonio.
David Tonner, CEO of Diversified Well Logging, will be our guest speaker, and he will describe his petrophysical services and provide several relevant South Texas examples.
The following is a brief description his presentation:
“Elemental composition data from drill cuttings and core measured with XRF X-Ray Fluorescence analyzers are utilized to develop an independent chemical stratigraphic framework, a chemical Gamma Ray (U+K+Th) model the mineralogy using stoichiometry and model the TOC calibrated to pyrolysis. A chemo-facies model is established using the core and training data set and then applied in near real time at the rig site to assist in the well construction and geosteering process. Data will be presented from several basins but in particular South Texas for both the Eagleford/Austin chalk and San Miguel formations.”
