In neutron spectroscopy downhole logging, each element has a characteristic gamma ray that is emitted from a given neutron-element interaction. Specific elements can be identified by their characteristic gamma-ray signature, with the intensity of emission related to the atomic elemental concentration. By combining elemental yields from neutron spectroscopy logs, reservoir parameters including porosities, lithologies, formation fluid salinities, and hydrocarbon saturations (including gas hydrate) can be calculated. Carbon and oxygen elemental data from the GLT was used to determine gas hydrate saturations at all three sites (Sites 994, 995, and 997) drilled on the Blake Ridge during Leg 164. Detailed analyses of the carbon and oxygen content of various sediments and formation fluids were used to construct specialized carbon/oxygen ratio (COR) fan charts for a series of hypothetical gas hydrate accumulations. For more complex geologic systems, a modified version of the standard three-component COR hydrocarbon saturation equation was developed and used to calculate gas hydrate saturations on the Blake Ridge. The COR-calculated gas hydrate saturations (ranging from about 2% to 14% bulk volume gas hydrate) from the Blake Ridge compare favorably to the gas hydrate saturations derived from electrical resistivity log measurements.completedEconomic geology, geology of energy sourcesApplied geophysicsAtlantic OceanBlake-Bahama Outer Ridgechemical ratiosformation evaluationgas hydratesgeochemical methodsLeg 164marine sedimentsmineral compositionnatural gasNorth AtlanticOcean Drilling ProgramODP Site 994ODP Site 995ODP Site 997petroleumpetroleum engineeringporosityreservoir propertiessedimentswell-loggingurn:org.iodp:exp:164urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:164:site:994urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:164urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:164:site:995urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:164urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:164:site:997urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:164urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignEnglishgeoscientificInformation-75.3245-75.280731.470831.5035
