Abstract
An embodiment of an apparatus for estimating and displaying formation and formation fluid properties includes a sampling device coupled to borehole fluid, the borehole fluid including hydrocarbons released from a region of the formation surrounding an interval of the borehole. The apparatus also includes an analysis unit configured to analyze the sample of the borehole fluid at each of a plurality of sample times and estimate amounts of hydrocarbons in the borehole fluid, and a processing device configured to estimate one or more ratios of an amount of at least one hydrocarbon gas to an amount of at least another hydrocarbon gas at each sample time, analyze the one or more ratios to estimate a type of hydrocarbon fluid associated with the ratio, and automatically generate a fluid log that displays an indication of the type at each of the plurality of sample times.
