Description

Based on the analysis of experimental data of hydrate resistivity and the general relationship between resistivity and oil (gas) saturation, the optimum formula for calculating hydrate saturation is derived, and the physical meanings of three items in the formula are defined, which respectively represent the increase rate of resistivity when hydrate particles are completely distributed in the pores of formation rocks, supported by particles and existed in layers, and the corresponding quantitative evaluation method of hydrate saturation is established When using the data set for assessing natural gas hydrate saturation, it is important to note that the derived formulas and saturation calculations are based on specific conditions such as rock porosity, hydrate distribution, and the presence of oil and gas within the pores. Users must consider the geological context and ensure that the experimental conditions used to derive the resistivity-saturation relationship are applicable to their assessment scenario. Careful interpretation of resistivity logs in line with the given methodology is required, and users should be aware of the implications of heterogeneous anisotropic pore volumes on the resistivity measurements.

Technology

The percentage of heterogeneous anisotropic pore volume is put forward. When the hydrate saturation increases from small to small, the experimental law of the measured resistivity changes is generally shown in the figure, that is, the resistivity increases monotonously with the increase of hydrate saturation in double logarithmic coordinates
