Abstract:
A method for estimating one or more properties as a function of depth of an earth formation penetrated by a borehole includes: receiving nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) logging data having NMR echo trains as a function of depth in the borehole; receiving non-NMR logging data having non-NMR measurement values for one or more types of non-NMR measurements as a function of depth in the borehole; generating an evolution matrix (E) representing a mathematical relationship between the one or more properties in property matrix (P) to be estimated and the NMR logging data and non-NMR logging data matrix (M); generating a matrix equation of the form M=E·P; and inverting the matrix equation to estimate the one or more properties as a function of depth.

Claim (Index 10):
A system for performing a hydrocarbon production-related action based on estimating one or more properties as a function of depth of an earth formation penetrated by a borehole, the system comprising:\n a carrier configured to be conveyed through the borehole; a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) logging tool disposed on the carrier and configured to provide NMR logging data comprising NMR echo trains as a function of depth in the borehole; a non-NMR tool disposed on the carrier and configured to provide non-NMR logging data comprising non-NMR measurement values for one or more types of non-NMR measurements as a function of depth in the borehole; a processor configured to: receive the NMR logging data; receive the non-NMR logging data; generate an evolution matrix (E) representing a mathematical relationship between the one or more properties in property matrix (P) to be estimated and the NMR logging data and non-NMR logging data in matrix (M); generate a matrix equation that comprises M, E and P; and invert the matrix equation to estimate the one or more properties as a function of depth in the borehole; hydrocarbon production-related apparatus configured to perform a hydrocarbon production-related action based on the one or more estimated properties as a function of depth in the borehole, wherein the one or more estimated properties as a function of depth in the borehole influences the performance of the hydrocarbon production-related action.
