May 26, 2019 0183 32 Gamma ray logging is a process used to measure naturally-occurring radioactivity below the soil As certain types of rocks break down over time, they emit radiation in the form of gamma rays There is a high correlation between gamma ray activity and deposits of sediment-rich rocks and clay called shaleThe presence of shale often serves as a solid indication that oil and natural gas can ,...
Finding New Oil In Old Ground , A new technology could save oil companies millions of dollars by helping find elusive oil deposits and reducing dramatically the risk and costs of unnecessary ....
This article focuses on the occurrence of NORM associated with the oil and gas industry and highlights some of the key issues and solutions Source and reservoir rocks of oil and gas deposits can contain high concentrations of radioactive elements that are mainly the decay products of uranium and thorium...
Radiation is all around us It is naturally present in our environment and has been since before the birth of this planet Radiation occurs in nature, but it can also be pro-duced artificially, as in medical x-rays and microwaves for cooking Radiation can be either beneficial or harmful, depending on its use ,...
Radioactivity Radioactivity is the emission of rays caused by the spontaneous change of one element into another Although several types of rays are emitted, only gamma rays have enough penetration to be of practical use in logging the natural radioactivity of rocks Radioactivity of Rocks All natural rocks contain some radioactive material...
The most common use of these radiotracers is at the well head for the measurement of flow rate for various purpos A 1995 study found that radioactive tracers were used in over 15 of stimulated oil and gas wells Use of these radioactive tracers is strictly controlled...
used in mineral investigations to map low-velocity alluvial deposits such as those that may contain gold, tin, or sand and gravel Applications in geoenvironmental work include studying the structure, thickness, and hydrology of tailings and extent of acid mine drainage around mineral deposits Dave and others, 1986 THERMAL METHODS...
a reddish-brown, grey , green, blue , or colourless hard mineral consisting of zirconium silicate in tetragonal crystalline form with hafnium and some rare earths as impurities It occurs principally in igneous rocks and is an important source of zirconium, zirconia , and hafnia it is used as a ....
The units used to measure radioactivity are curie Ci and becquerel Bq and volumes produced The geologic formations that contain oil and gas deposits also contain naturally-occurring radionuclides, which are referred to as Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials NORM Uranium and its decay products Thorium and decay products...
Radiation Sources in Natural Gas Well Activiti More attention and monitoring of occupational radiation exposure in the natural gas industry are warranted...
Then the geologists split up into pairs, and each pair looked at one of the sites of potential oil reserv Based on the data, they try to describe around 10 features, including the porousness of ....
OIL EXPLORATIONIn the early days of petroleum prospecting in Texas most oil finds were the result of digging or drilling near known oil and gas seeps, as Lyne T Barret did in 1866 at Oil Spring in Nacogdoches County, or of accidental finds while drilling for water, as with George Dullnig s 1886 strike in Bexar County or the discovery of oil in Corsicana in 1894...
Dec 03, 1990 0183 32 A naturally occurring radioactive material, radium has been found in every oil-producing region in the country, from Alaska to Florida, causing low levels of radiation ,...
The fact is, all of us are exposed to radiation every day Radiation, of course, can be harmful It is also beneficial To some people, radioactivity connotes only weapons of destruction and nuclear power plants The use of radioactive materials, however, pervades our lives, often in ways many people might find ,...
Surface geophysical surveys have been applied to mineral and petroleum exploration for many years A magnetic compass was used in Sweden in the mid-1600s to find iron ore deposits The lateral extent of the Comstock ore body was mapped using self-potential methods in the 1880s...
Finding oil and gas reservoirs is a long and complex process It can take years of research, survey work and exploration drilling before a single drop of oil or cubic meter of natural gas is produced We use a range of survey methods to find the best places to drill exploratory wells...
How is radioactivity used to locate oil deposits? they either use one of the folowing types gamma, beta, alpha depending on the type of place they want to search they send out the waves and if ....
Naturally occurring radioactive elements such as uranium, radium, and radon are dissolved in very low concentrations during normal reactions between water and rock or soil Ground water that coexists with deposits of oil can have unusually high concentrations of dissolved constituents that build up during prolonged periods of...
The information interpreted from the logs is used to decision whether a well should be completed and used to produce oil and gas, or filled with cement and abandoned The logs are also used to update the geologic models originally used to locate the well...

How do you think geoscientists find oil and natural gas in the earth? Answers may vary Highlight when students indicate the use of technology and computers Why do geoscientists need to find oil and natural gas? Students should mention the growing demand for energy...
Jan 19, 2018 0183 32 Radioactivity from oil and gas wastewater persists in Pennsylvania stream sediments Radioactivity in sediments at three disposal sites measured 650 times higher than normal...
Occasionally underground oil seeps to the surface Then it is easy to find However, most oil is buried underground We have to drillthrough the rock to get it Early rigscould only work on landHowever, we can now use oil platformsto get oil out from under the sea bed These geologistsare looking for oil They use charts of rock layers called seismic surveys...
Naturally Occurring Radioactive material, natural materials contain radioactive elements radionuclides , known as NORM The earth s crust is radioactive Information from the World Nuclear Association, the global private-sector organization that seeks toprovide information on nuclear power, nuclear energy, Chernobyl, uranium, nuclear waste management...
May 03, 2019 0183 32 Historically, wildcat wells drilled in areas greater than 15 miles from the nearest producing well only find enough oil to pay for drilling 6-12 of the time Only 2-3 yield enough oil to justify an adjacent well, and only 1 out of 700 discover enough oil to develop a field...
True After drilling out oil from underground for a while, there is a negative pressure in the hole that creates a vacuum and makes it harder to pump out the oil When you first start drilling oil, it spews out because of the positive pressure that allows it to spit the oil out But as you remove more oil, you start getting a negative pressure...
Uranium is a naturally occurring element that has the highest atomic weight 238 g/mole and is slightly radioactive It can be found in minute quantities in most rocks, soils and waters normally < 5 ppm , but the real challenge is to find it in high enough concentrations to make it economically feasible to mine...
