On March 13th and 14th, Mr. Derrick Green (CEO of Green Imaging Technologies Inc.) gave us two lectures on The basics of NMR and Advanced Topics on NMR
See below a summary of the two days of the lecture:
Day 1 - The basics of NMR in Rocks
This
seminar introduced the audience to NMR, starting with the basics of
NMR. From how NMR signals are generated to the different signal
lifetimes (relaxation rates). The relationship between NMR relaxation
rates and important petrophysical properties like pore size, NMR-derived
pore size to bound and mobile fluid, and the NMR permeability
relationships were all presented.
Day 2 - Advance NMR Petrophysics
This
seminar discussed the additional petrophysical properties that can be
examined with the more advanced NMR techniques. Utilization of spatial
resolution that yields information about capillary pressure and flooding
properties such as sweep efficiency were presented and discussed.
Other properties such as wettability, gas adsorption, and relative
permeability were also discussed, emphasizing how NMR can help
characterize these properties.
