Abstract:Pulsed neutron log (PNL) is well known for its main application to determine hydrocarbon saturation in cased-hole wells by means of neutron inelastic reaction with carbon and oxygen elements. However, the computed hydrocarbon saturation might be biased by the presence of hydrocarbon in the annulus between casing and formation, in which the cement is not evenly distributed. Cement quality analysis is important to complement the cased-hole analysis, not only to ensure the validity of the computed hydrocarbon sat… Show more
