Objectives Follow numerous empirical rock relationships and theoretical rock models in a workflow to derive and evaluate the measured results for the Gassmann fluid substitution, as the Gassmann fluid substitution depends heavily on correct rock property measurements. The theoretic rock models include effective medium models and contact models, which predict the physical behavior and trends of the rock. The theoretic models are guidelines in evaluating and estimating the rock properties. The empirical relationships in Geolog includes the most commonly used velocity-porosity and density-porosity models. All necessary input required by the Gassmann equations can be derived or evaluated from the above models/ relationships. The two Gassmann models in Geolog include the clean sand and shaly sand models. The former assumes the rock constituents are mainly sand, whereas the latter assumes a fairly big amount of shale contents. The clean sand model can be used for mixed mineralogy by using an effective average modulus of rock matrix mixture. 1 Contents      2 Overview Data preparation Fluid properties Empirical relations Solid grain properties Continued on next page... 2010 Training Catalog Reservoir Characterization & Petrophysics 85 Paradigm™       In-situ rock properties Effective medium models Contact models Krief's Relation and critical porosity model Gassmann model Bounds 86 2010 Training Catalog Paradigm™ Reservoir Characterization & Petrophysics Multimin Details Duration Prerequisites 2 days To gain the most from this training course, the following prerequisites are required:  7 4 . . .
