NMR Mud Logging (MR-ML)

KMS Technologies – KJT Enterprises Inc. and their alliance partner NMR Plus Inc. of Canada have developed new technology to evaluate rock and fluid properties in real time while drilling. The product is a mobile NMR relaxometer designed for NMR mud logging, water-cut, and on-site core analysis. The approach is based on Low Field NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) measurements and is intended for faster and more reliable identifying of hydrocarbon-bearing reservoirs while drilling a well (mud logging). Drill cuttings and micro-samples of hydrocarbons delivered to the surface are used to make the measurements. The new NMR application provides better results when used in conjunction with conventional techniques.
MR-ML™ Hardware  
The core of the technology is the new generation of portable magnetic resonance spectrometers (~25 kg) combining basic specifications of laboratory low-field relaxometers with unique features, making the MR-ML™ instrument adaptable to a variety of on-site measurements. The size of the sensitivity region is tailored to accommodate drill cuttings or core samples (approximately 4 cm by 5 cm). The system is designed to maximize "SNR/WEIGHT" ratio, and the NMR experiment parameters are automatically adjusted during calibration procedure, thus the measurement are automatically corrected for any instabilities and environmental changes.
MR-ML™ Software  
  • User friendly Windows-based interface
  • Advanced inversion methodology for T 2 distribution
  • Porosity, permeability, Swirr on-site or in a laboratory
  • One-button software for major applications (mud logging)
  • Calibration and tune functions
  • Full spectrometer acquisition software for 'expert' NMR applications
  • NMR simulator, Bi-modal mode, multiple measurement set-up and execution (optional)
MR-ML™ System Benefits  
  • Formation evaluation and petrophysical parameters during mud logging
  • Real time pore pressure prediction densities
  • NMR log calibration parameters
  • Low cost NMR log substitution
  • Competitively priced NMR devices and software
