Abstract :
In this paper we study the ability of logs to
make an appreciable contribution in the search for
complementary geological information by interpreting
the data recorded during the prospecting of wells by
nuclear probe. We focused on nuclear logs such as
gamma-gamma (or density logs), neutron-neutron and
natural radioactivity logs (gamma ray) used in the
Mibale-18 well surveys located in the city of Muanda in
Kongo Central a western province of Democratic
Republic of Congo. It is much more a pedagogical and
methodological approach of the subject intending to
show that the logs are based on the measurements of
some physical parameters which allow a horizontal and
vertical follow-up of the lithological units with a
correlation between the variations of the stratigraphic
units between the drill holes of different logs.The
different recordings in the Mibale-18 wellhave led to a
qualitative differentiation of the various lithological units
thereby confirming the restructuring of a stratigraphic
log from the logs. The results obtained were coherent in
the synthesis characterizing the oil reservoirs of the
Mibale field in Muanda coastal basin in the Upper
Pinda. In the drilling of the Mibale-18 well; it was
possible to identify oil indices well marked by the
stratigraphic recordings and correlations of the different
measurements made by different probes. This allowed us
to identify and limit the potential of our well.
