Abstract

A whole core NMR system has been used to obtain natural abundance ¹³C spectra. The system enables rapid nondestructive measurements of bulk volume of movable oil, aliphatic/aromatic ratio, oil viscosity, and organic vs carbonate carbon. ¹³C NMR can be used in cores where the ¹H NMR spectrum is too broad to separately resolve oil and water resonances. A 5 1/4 in. ¹³C/¹H NMR coil has been installed on a General Electric CSI-2T NMR imager/spectrometer. With a 4-in. od whole core, good ¹³C signal-to-noise ratio is obtained within minutes, while ¹H spectra are obtained in seconds. NMR measurements have been made of the ¹³C and ¹H density of crude oils with a wide range of API gravities.
