Abstract

Methods, systems, devices, and products for well logging. Methods include conveying a logging tool in the borehole on a carrier; obtaining a borehole image over at least one interval of borehole depth from well logging measurements with a downhole imaging instrument; obtaining acoustic information representative of acoustic reflections from a far-field region of the formation; obtaining quantitative borehole fluid information indicative of properties of a formation fluid in a near-field region of the borehole; generating a borehole connectivity fracture model of the formation in dependence upon the borehole image, the quantitative borehole fluid information, and the acoustic information. Methods may include identifying near-field fractures from the borehole image, and/or identifying far-field fractures from the acoustic information. Methods may include generating a fracture interpretation correlating the near-field fractures with the far-field fractures, and generating the borehole connectivity fracture model of the formation in dependence upon the fracture interpretation.
