The trip purpo$e is to witness coring acquisition and wireline logging activities in M-64 well as part of training program.The witnessed job was done for 8,5 inch hole section.

M-64 well has acquired cores for several reservoir units. The coring acquisition in M-64 well is planning for four interval (see Table 1 .). However the actual acquisition is only recovered three core intervals
(see Table 2.). Barrel

The next coring interval was running by using a Conventional system. And it was worked in the next three intervals run. Coring point decision is also a critical factor in this core acquisition activity. The wellsite geologist should be very careful in looking at the well correlation.The well correlation was done by using mud log from surrounding/offset wells since there was no LWD in this well. This M-64 well is using M-17 and M-16 data as offset wells for correlation. The monitoring of real time total gas is very crucial since high total gas is usually related to hydrocarbon reservoir. The core bit was using MCP 552 type (see Picture 1.). And the core barrel was using Ultra Stable, heavy d uty 7 1/8" x 4" x 20 ft core barrel. The core barrel consists oftwo parts: the inner barrel and the outer barrel. This 20 ft core barrel run will help reduce risk of compression damage in softer sand. And the 4"core diameter (large diameter) will help the core stronger, less prone to pack-off and minimize opportunity for structural damage and invasion.

pump rate (GPM), torque and standpipe pressure, are very important. These are valuable indicators of coring performance. lt is recommended to have WOB 2 to 4 Klbs, RPM 50-80 and flow rate GPM 60-90 (sandstone) to 100-150 (claylshale) until at least 3 ft is cored. When coring is established, the parameters could be increased to maximum rate of parameters: WOB 20 Klbs, RPM i 00 and 200 GPM.

WIRELINE LOGGN${G

Several logging tools were run in the well M-54 by wireline cable, they were: PEX-All ADI FMl, CMll, ECs, XPT and CST. Allthese loEginE tools were run in 8.5 inch hole diarneter and divicled into 5 runs.

PEX-AIT

Ruang Pustaka

PEX-AIT was run with ADT combination. The PEX-AIT measures a standard open hole log curves, such as: GR (gamma ray), Resistivity, Neutron and Density curves of the borehole (see Picture 6). From this measurement we can determi{e the reservoir quality and reservoir content by Petrophysict (Formation Evaluation) analysis and calculation.

2.2

ADT, CMR and ECS

The ADT and CMR-ECS tools were not run in the same time.This is because the CMR tool contents a magnetic resource which could

interfere the ADT tool reading. But the data results of ADT, CMR and ECS will be combined together to give a better determination of all oil bearings interval within the formation (see Picture 7).
ADT (Dlelectric Scanner) is a direct measurement of water saturation (Sw) or fluid content of reservoir, water salinity and water-filled porosity within the invaded zone. This measurement is independent from resistivity. CMR (Combinable Magnetic Resonance)

tool basically determine all permeable intervals. lt provides high resolution answer on reservoir permeability and porosity (hydrocarbon pore volume). lt also could identify hydrocarbons in low contrast and low resistivity pay zones thin pay zones.

The FMI is a very useful tool to analyze the sedimentary and structural image of reservoir. The sedimentary images such as: bedding

ECS

(Elemental Capture Spectroscopy Sonde) measures primary mineralogy elements in the formation, such as: silicon (5i), iron (Fe), calcium (Ca), sulfur (S), titanium (Ti), gadolinlum (Gd), chlorine (Cl), barium (Ba) and hydrogen (H).The purpose of this measurement is to

to interpret the depositional environment of the formation. The structural images such as: structural dip, fractures, folds, faults, could be used to interpret the structural event within the formation.
