Wireline Log Acquisition In Geothermal Wells

Issues

– Temperatures recorded at >350oC

  • Tools commonly rated only to 250oC, often <250oC

– Steam in wellbore

  • The physics of most tools depend on water filling the wellbore

Solutions

– Special Hi Temp tools

  • Few, very expensive and generally inferior

– Cooling flasks for some tools

  • Limited tools, and not for image and production logs

– Cooling the borehole with water

  • Also provides the correct borehole medium for logging
  • Uses untreated river water
  • Only in >/= 8.5” borehole. 6” borehole produces “rocket” effect and cable

pull-off

  • The suite: electrical borehole imaging tool – in open hole
  • Production logging tool – inside slotted liner

Alternating current

is emitted from an upper electrode

Passive focusing:

lower electrodes form an equi- potential surface parallel to borehole wall

Detected current is

determined by the formation resistivity

Constant feedback

Conclusions

Injection of cold water into geothermal wells allows

acquisition of standard P&T rated logging tool data

Electrical borehole images provide an excellent way

to identify, classify, quantify & orientate fractures, faults, and borehole damage, the latter indicating stress direction

Electrical borehole images alone do not, however,

identify which fractures will or will not produce

Integration of image data with production logging data

can identify individual fractures, fracture zones and faults that will potentially produce steam
