Practical Petrophysics, Second Edition provides a comprehensive overview of building a petrophysical model. All aspects from the principles of data acquisition, through analysis to reporting are covered. It is not intended to be a review of specific tools and measurements nor is it simply a recipe book. The book aims to teach the fundamental principles that underlie the commonly used tools and techniques but also to encourage pragmatism and avoid reading too much into what is always imperfect data- Includes a new chapter on underground storage of carbon dioxide and other net zero applications- Covers new information on digital core analysis and density-neutron methods- Includes a new chapter on fractured reservoirs, including models, evaluation, and geomechanics

Practical Petrophysics looks at both the principles and practice of petrophysics in understanding petroleum reservoirs. It concentrates on the tools and techniques in everyday use, and addresses all types of reservoirs, including unconventionals.

The book provides useful explanations on how to perform fit for purpose interpretations of petrophysical data, with emphasis on what the interpreter needs and what is practically possible with real data. Readers are not limited to static reservoir properties for input to volumetrics, as the book also includes applications such as reservoir performance, seismic attribute, geo-mechanics, source rock characterization, and more.

Principles and practice are given equal emphasis Simple models and concepts explain the underlying principles Extensive use of contemporary, real-life examples
