Irreducible fluid indexes (MBVID) |
This is a log of measurements along a well bore (a well-log). You might have encountered this acronym MBVID in your log evaluation software or any (ASCII) log files provided by the logging company. The abreviatin stands for 'Irreducible fluid indexes'. This log is often used in the industry. This log can be used to evaluate the fraction of the pore volume occupied by water in a reservoir at maximum hydrocarbon saturation, such that it cannot be further reduced. Concluding, this is a measure of the fraction or percentage of the pore volume occupied by a specific fluid; e.g., oil, gas, water.This log usually has the unit 'Porosity'. This is the pore volume per unit gross volume. Porosity is determined from measurements on cores or interpreted from logs. Data from this log can be used to investigate the saturation of the formation. Similar logs are listed below:
