There is a method of determining properties relating to an underbalanced well, comprising inducing pressure variations in a fluid within a well, measuring the pressure variations, and calculating pore pressure of at least one fluid- producing formation. The pressure variations cause a change in flow rate from formations along a length of borehole, and as such a change in the production flow rate of the well. The variations in pressure are used to calculate the pore pressure. Variations in annular bottomhole pressure are induced by altering the flow rate of drilling fluid, or the density of drilling fluid or by acoustic pulsing downhole. The pore pressure, permeability and porosity of the formations is derived as a real time profile along the length of the borehole.

L'invention concerne un procédé de détermination des propriétés relatives à un puits en sous pression, consistant à induire des variations de pression dans un fluide à l'intérieur d'un puits, à mesurer ces variations de pression, et à calculer une pression interstitielle d'au moins une formation de production de fluide. Les variations de pression provoquent une variation de débit provenant de formations sur une longueur de trou de sonde, et provoquent ainsi une variation du débit de production du puits. Ces variations de pression sont employées pour calculer la pression interstitielle. Les variations de pression dans le fonds de puits annulaire sont induites par modification du débit de fluide de forage, de la densité de ce fluide de forage ou induites par application d'impulsions acoustiques au fond du puits. La pression interstitielle, la perméabilité et la porosité des formations sont obtenues sous la forme d'un profil en temps réel sur la longueur du trou de sonde.
