Upper limit of Chloride ions for recording wireline logs

  • 1.  Upper limit of Chloride ions for recording wireline logs

    Posted 08-07-2014 12:22 AM
    Hi,
    Can anyone please guide me what is the maximum upper limit of Chloride ions in a mud system to effectively record wireline logs. In one of the wells I am dealing with, my mud chloride contents are ~160K ppm while SLB is asking us to reduce these contents to ~70K or below. Is it really possible to record wireline logs with Chloride contents in access of ~150K ppm?

    I would highly appreciate your assistance in this regard.

    Thank you & best regards,
