Reservoir characterization

Improving the Relationship Between Flow-Zone Indicators With Lithofacies

The F field in the Middle East currently has more than 40 producing wells in the center of the structure. The uneven well distribution limits the understanding of 3D reservoir characterization, particularly in the flank areas.

The F field in the Middle East currently has more than 40 producing wells in the center of the structure. The uneven well distribution limits the understanding of 3D reservoir characterization, particularly in the flank areas. A fit-for-purpose integrated reservoir-characterization study was carried out. The exercise, outlined in the complete paper, confirms the heterogeneity within B formation (the primary oil reservoir within F field), and it captures the changes in reservoir quality laterally and vertically.

Introduction

F field is located in the northeastern part of the Arabian Peninsula.
