Determining Depth of Loss Zones in Subterranean Formations

A method includes injecting a treatment fluid through a tubular in a wellbore created in a subterranean formation, wherein the treatment fluid is to return through an annulus defined between the tubular and a wall of the wellbore. The method includes logging, during the injecting, measurements compr...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method includes injecting a treatment fluid through a tubular in a wellbore created in a subterranean formation, wherein the treatment fluid is to return through an annulus defined between the tubular and a wall of the wellbore. The method includes logging, during the injecting, measurements comprising at least one of an actual wellhead pressure; treatment fluid inlet density, inlet flow rate, outlet flow rate, and treatment fluid inlet viscosity. The method includes determining a loss zone location in the wellbore based on the measurements.
