Resource Abstract

This slide deck was presented to BPOP Members on October 22, 2024, as part of the EERC's ongoing BPOP webinar series. The petrophysical evaluation focused on data-rich wells across the Bakken and Three Forks Formations, using spectroscopy logs, nuclear magnetic resonance logs, and x-ray fluorescence/x-ray diffraction analyses. Interpretations were driven by results and included insights into lithology, water saturation, kerogen volumes, permeability, and reservoir quality. The next petrophysical tasks involved applying insights from data-rich wells to those with a more common log data suite, intended to serve as training datasets for cluster analysis or machine learning applications.

The Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC) is recognized as one of the world's leading developers of cleaner, more efficient energy to power the world and environmental technologies to protect and clean our air, water, and soil.
