Popis: | Summary Multiphase production log interpretation requires that the flow regime along hole in the wellbore is known. Flow regime is the cased-hole analog of lithology. Knowledge of the flow regime will help to interpret tool signals, will help to evaluate the flow rate on a per phase basis, and will reduce post-processing load. The flow regime can be classified correctly by a neural net in up to 87% of all cases using 1/3 octave band spectra of flow-generated sound plus the pipe inclination angle. Without the inclination an 88% correct classification can be achieved. A neural net trained on commercially available tool data (noise cuts) appears to be too sensitive to the wellbore inclination. Hence, application of automated neural net interpretation of noise logs requires a new generation of noise logging tools. |
