In this work we have used the Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA) technique to investigate an oil reservoir. The system we address here is situated at Bacia de Namorados, RJ, Brazil. The data corresponds to well logs of five geophysical variables: sonic, porosity, electrical resistivity, gamma ray and density measured in 56 wells. The objective of this work is to analyze the correlation or similarity among the DFA index of several geophysical quantities. We perform a linear correlation test to compare pairs of DFA indices of the geophysical quantities for the well logs. We have not found a major similarity among the five variables which indicates an absence of correlation for these variables. Therefore, we argue that the DFA index should be used with caution in the characterization of oil reservoirs. In this way we suggest to integrate the information of DFA of several physical quantities to adequately model this kind of system.

Monthly averages of the sunspot number visible on the sun, observed from 1749, Zurich Observatory, and from 1848 other observatories, have been analyzed. This time signal presents a frequency power spectra with a clear 1/fα behavior with α≃0.8±0.2. The well-known cycle of approximately 11 years, clearly present in the spectrum, does not produce a sensible distortion of that behavior. The eventual characterization of the sunspot time series as a fractal is analyzed by means of the detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA). The jump-size distribution of the signal is also studied.
