Globally Creating Density Porosity Curves

You can globally create density porosity curves from RHOB for an entire project using the unique matrix density. Generated DPSS, SPLS, or DPDL curves can be used to create traditional types of crossovers of Density Porosity and Neutron Porosity. If you are not going to generate crossovers you don’t need to generate new curves because AccuX can calculate effective porosity compensated for the presence of shale directly from RHOB. Using direct RHOB is preferable because you can set a unique matrix density for each target zone (sandstone, limestone, or dolomite).

To create global density porosity curves

1. From the Global menu, select Global Digital Curve Manager.

The Global Digital Curve Manager dialog box appears.

2. In the left list area, select RHOB and click create density porosity.

The Porosity Log Generation dialog box appears.

3. Accept the defaults
OR

Using the Average Characteristics of Rock Types table, type the matrix and fluid parameters.

Note: If your source curve units are G/CM3 or G/C3, type 2.65 in the matrix box and 1 in the fluid box (for DPSS).
