OIL & GAS CUTTINGS CHARACTERIZATION EXAMPLE

WinLoG Oil Percent Cuttings and Grain Size Example

Integrated percent cuttings, lithology, grain size, stratigraphy and petroleum-description data in a single 220 ft log.

This example demonstrates a detailed petroleum cuttings log for borehole Cuttings and Grain Size. It combines proportional cuttings columns with patterned lithology and depth-aligned geological observations, including constituents, fossils, facies, oil staining, diagenesis and porosity type.

The grain-size profile presents vertical changes from very fine through coarse material alongside 14 lithology intervals, 15 percent-cuttings intervals and 25 grain-size intervals. Automated validation reports 100% completeness, Good quality, 82% confidence, three warnings and no errors.

Capabilities Demonstrated

What This Cuttings and Grain Size Example Shows

Percent Cuttings

  • 15 depth intervals
  • Multiple cutting constituents
  • Proportional patterned columns
  • Depth-aligned composition
  • Visual changes by interval

Lithology & Stratigraphy

  • 14 lithology intervals
  • Four formation tops
  • Standard lithology patterns
  • Formation and member tracks
  • 220 ft total depth

Geological Observations

  • Constituents and fossils
  • Facies classification
  • Nine oil-staining records
  • 11 diagenesis records
  • 10 porosity-type records

Grain Size

  • 25 depth intervals
  • Very fine to coarse scale
  • Silt and sand fractions
  • Stepped profile display
  • Comparison with lithology

Validation Findings Included in the Example

The validation status is Warnings, with 100% completeness, Good quality, an 82% confidence score, three warnings and zero errors.

  • Lithology missing: 12 layers between 40 and 55 ft do not contain lithology information.
  • Oil staining at 156 ft: strong staining occurs in a lithology not identified as reservoir-capable.
  • Oil staining at 179 ft: strong staining occurs in a lithology not identified as reservoir-capable.

These findings make the page useful for demonstrating how WinLoG distinguishes complete data entry from cross-dataset geological consistency.
