Drilling Classification

• Exploration:

– Wildcat – drilling on a new trap / structure

– Delineation / Appraisal – to confirm a

discovery is economical for development

• Development – to get enough productionfrom a field

• Completion - process of making a well ready for production (or injection)

CUTTING

Description Guidelines

• Rock Type

• Color• Hardness

• Grain size and shape

• Sorting

• Cementation and

Matrix

• Accessory mineral

• Fossil & Unusual Features• Visual Porosity &

Permeability

• Hydrocarbon Show

Indication


13/25

Some description need to add in certain

type of lithology:

• Grain color - mainly to describe grains in loose sand

• Cutting Shape - typically texture for soft sediment like

coal, shale and siltstone, but some features recognized

as pressure and bit type effect

• Fissility - main internal structure to identified shale

• Luster - mainly used for mineral or showing degree of

coal maturity• Crystallinity - specially used for limestone

Hydrocarbon Shows

Beware that some minerals have natural fluorescence under UV light

• Oil Shows

• Oil show description under ultra-violet

light microscope

• Gas Shows

• Total Gas readings using hot-wire unit

(gas detector)• Gas Chromatography
