In nuclear logging, fast neutrons released by a D-T neutron source interact with atomic nuclei of stratum elements, and secondary gamma ray information is detected to reflect the properties of stratum fluid, which is of great significance for stratum oil and gas evaluation and guidance of reservoir development.

[0003] At present, the evaluation method of reservoir oil saturation based on pulse neutron logging mainly includes C / O spectral logging and neutron lifetime logging. The neutron lifetime logging is affected by the uncertainty of stratum water salinity, and it is difficult to accurately obtain the Sigma parameter of fluid, resulting in great calculation error of stratum oil saturation. Therefore, how to accurately obtain the Cl element content is a prerequisite for accurate evaluation of reservoir oil saturation.

[0076] In the present embodiment, the non-elastic gamma spectrum measured by the single-detector element logging instrument is first analyzed by using the weighted least squares method to determine the non-elastic yield of each element in the formation. Then, the capture gamma spectrum measured by the single-detector element logging instrument is analyzed by using the weighted least squares method to determine the capture yield of each element in the formation.

[0077] The non-elastic yield and the capture yield of each element in the formation are calculated by using the formation element yield calculation formula, which is:

[0102]

[0103] wherein n' j is the atomic percentage of element j in the formation;

[0104] When the yield y j is the inelastic yield of element j, the atomic sensitivity factor S j is the inelastic atomic sensitivity factor of element j, the formation atomic normalization factor F is a formation atomic inelastic normalization factor, and the calculated atomic percentage n' j is the inelastic atomic percentage of element j in the formation.

[0105] When the yield y j is the capture yield of element j, the atomic sensitivity factor S jis the number of captured atoms of element j, F is the stratum atom normalization coefficient, and n′ is the calculated atomic number proportion j is the number of captured atoms of element j in the stratum.

[0106] The non-elastic atomic number proportion dataset of the elements in the stratum is established according to the non-elastic atomic number proportions of the elements in the stratum, and the captured atomic number proportion dataset of the elements in the stratum is established according to the captured atomic number proportions of the elements in the stratum.

[0107] Step 2.4, the non-elastic atomic number proportions of carbon, oxygen and magnesium elements are extracted from the non-elastic atomic number proportion dataset of the elements in the stratum, and then the captured atomic number proportions of the elements other than carbon, oxygen and magnesium elements are extracted from the captured atomic number proportion dataset of the elements in the stratum, to construct the atomic number proportion dataset of the elements in the stratum.

[0111] In the formula, i is the serial number of the element in the atomic number proportion dataset of the elements in the stratum, i is a positive integer and 1≤i≤m; w i is the mass fraction of element i in the atomic number proportion dataset of the elements in the stratum, n i ′ is the atomic number proportion of element j in the atomic number proportion dataset of the elements in the stratum, M i is the mass number of element j in the atomic number proportion dataset of the elements in the stratum.

[0112] The content of chlorine element in the stratum is calculated based on the atomic number proportion under different stratum water salinity conditions by using the method of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 It is found by comparison that the absolute error of the chlorine element content calculated by using the atomic number proportion based mass fraction calculation method of the elements in the stratum of the present application is less than 0.01%, which is much smaller than the absolute error 1.72% of the chlorine element content calculated by using the oxygen closure model, thereby verifying the accuracy of the calculation of the content of the elements in the stratum based on the atomic number proportion.

[0113] Step 3, the time spectrum measured by the single detector element logging instrument is processed, the first time window and the second time window are selected in the time spectrum, and the macroscopic capture cross section Σ of the stratum is calculated by using the gamma count in the first time window and the second time window, as shown in formula (7):

[0119] The formation water salinity and the oil saturation of the formation are simultaneously calculated by using the comprehensive calculation model of the formation water salinity and the oil saturation.

[0120] Meanwhile, according to the instrument structure of the single-detector element logging instrument, a calculation model of different formation water salinity and oil saturation is constructed by using a numerical simulation method, the detection process of the single-detector element logging instrument in the formation is simulated, the non-elastic gamma spectrum, the capture gamma spectrum and the time spectrum of the single-detector element logging instrument are simulated, the content of the chlorine element in the formation is obtained by using the method, the double-parameter information is simultaneously obtained by using the time spectrum, and the simulation value of the formation water salinity and the simulation value of the oil saturation of the formation are simultaneously determined. The simulation value of the formation water salinity is compared with the calculated value of the formation water salinity, and the simulation value of the oil saturation is compared with the calculated value of the oil saturation. Figure 4 It can be known that the error of the oil saturation calculated by using the method is controlled within 5%, according to Figure 5 It can be known that the error of the formation water salinity calculated by using the method is controlled within 5Kppm, thereby verifying the accuracy of the method for calculating the oil saturation and the formation water salinity.
