Abstract

Gas Logging is important for discovering and evaluating oil gas zones in the course of logging. Aimed at the features of gas logging in our country, a new method of automatic vacuum mud still (AVMS) is presented for the first time, which has no basic distortion of gas samples and overcomes the limitations of basic distortions caused by uncontrolled blending air in the samples in traditional degassing methods. This paper develops the theoretical basis of the system design, the working principle of AVMS, the gas flow path and its characteristics. It is proved by experimental results, that the hydrocarbon content of the sample produced by this system is ten times higher than by routine degasser. As a result, the accuracy of gas reconnaissance is improved.
