George King is a technology provider in the oil and gas industry specializing in new technology and problem oil well solutions.
A measurement of the difficulty of moving a fluid past another fluid. The resistance is created by the cohesion forces between the liquid molecules. The forces make it more difficult to pass fluids past a surface. Surface tension is measured in dyne/cm. Untreated water is 72.8 dynes/cm at 20oC. Ethyl Alcohol is 22.3 and mercury is 465.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement of the electrical resistivity of a formation. The measurement will be significantly affected by the type of fluid and the salinity of water based fluids within the pores of the rock.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement of the internal resistance of a fluid to flow against itself. Expressed as the ratio of shear stress to shear rate.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement of the pressure at which the fractured formation closes. Generally determined by the change in slope of the pressure reading as leakoff gradually lessens the volume of fluid that is holding the fracture open, until the fracture walls meet and the pressure reverts to a decline to pore pressure.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement of the processing of kerogen towards dry methane gas. Usually expressed at Vitronite reflection percent. Vro <0.6 is a immature oil, 0.6 to 1.0 is a oil with dissolved gas, 1.0 to 1.3 is wet gas and >1.4 is dry gas. Vro over values of about 4.o are a reflection of all hydrocarbons being cooked off.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement of the well path that records the inclination and azimuth of the wellbore using a compass or other device.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement, derived from a data frac, of the efficiency of a particular fluid in creating fracture area on a particular formation at a set of conditions.
Industry:Oil & gas
A mechanical dampener above a perforating gun that attenuates some of the acceleration force created by firing the gun.
Industry:Oil & gas
A mechanical device that suspends all or part of the weight from a tubular string, transferring the load to the well head and the earth.
Industry:Oil & gas
A mechanical device used for holding or locking where segmented keys or fingers are pushed into a recess to hold, anchor or grasp the tool.
