Abstract
Component weight and/or volume fractions of subterranean rock are determined. A formation model generates mineral and fluid concentration data from which elemental concentrations are calculated. Forward modeling produces a simulated energy spectrum, and simulation produces a simulated constraining log. Spectra is generated by detecting gamma radiation with a neutron logging tool, and a constraining log is generated. The spectrum and the simulated energy spectrum are compared with resultant error determined. The constraining log and simulated constraining log are compared with resultant error determined. The formation model generates further mineral and fluid concentration to calculate further elemental concentrations. Forward modeling produces further simulated energy spectrum signal and further constraining logs. The spectrum signals and further simulated spectrum signal are compared with resultant error determined. The constraining log and further simulated constraining log are compared, and resultant error is determined. The mineral and fluid concentration are selected that result in minimal error.
