The invention provides a method for identifying the
water content of a reservoir based on light
hydrocarbon logging. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring light
hydrocarbon logging data of an oil and gas reservoir to be evaluated; selecting total
hydrocarbon abundance,
benzene and
toluene /
benzene in the light hydrocarbon
logging data as light hydrocarbon parameters; establishing a two-dimensional atlas through the intersection of
benzene and
toluene / benzene in the light hydrocarbon parameters, establishing a three-dimensional atlas through the total hydrocarbon abundance and the change of benzene and
toluene / benzene, dividing the boundaries of an oil layer, an oil-
water layer and an oil-containing
water layer, and quantitatively explaining and evaluating the fluid properties of the reservoir. According to the method, the light hydrocarbon logging technology is utilized, two-dimensional and three-dimensional interpretation maps are formed through intersection by selecting light hydrocarbon parameters such as total hydrocarbon abundance, benzene and methylbenzene, the interface and the
water content of the
reservoir fluid are quantitatively recognized, the
coincidence rate of actual interpretation and evaluation of the
reservoir fluid is increased, the exploration and development cost of an
oil field is effectively reduced, and the purpose of improving the oil testing effect is achieved; the method is easy to operate, high in identification and evaluation accuracy, high in universality and wide in application range.
