Embodiment Construction
[0024] The invention utilizes the element content measured by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) of sedimentary cuttings (that is, element mud logging) to establish a sedimentary rock lithology identification model while drilling to accurately identify the lithology.
[0025] A method for lithology identification of sedimentary rocks by using element logging, comprising the following steps:
[0026] a. Process element logging data and convert it into percentage content;
[0027] b. Distinguish two types of carbonate rocks and clastic rocks by using the percentages of clastic sensitive elements and carbonate sensitive elements;
[0028] c. In carbonate rocks, calculate calcium sulfate content, magnesium calcium carbonate content and calcium carbonate content;
[0029] d. In clastic rocks, calculate the sand content and shale content;
[0030] e. Normalize the calculated calcium sulfate, calcium magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, sandy and muddy contents to calculate the gypsum, do...
