GeoEnlight Fase 2

Offentlig prosjektsammendrag

GeoEnlight Pilot will add substantial innovation to the decision process in exploration drilling. Today cores from downhole are drilled, pulled back to surface, and laid down in a barrel. A geologist will evaluate what the cores contains. A point gamma measurement is often taken of the cores, but they are also evaluated by subjective methods like visual inspection, smelling and touching the rocks. Decisions have to be taken quickly offshore since a very expensive drilling rig is waiting, but to be sure no hydrocarbon reservoir is missed, the geologist evaluation would therefore often choose more coring. The objective of the GeoEnlight Pilot is developing and piloting a corescanner that can accuratly identify lithology, fractures and oil saturation.
