Abstract:
Vulcan Subbasin is an area with a lot of oil and gas exploration where is located in the Bonaparte Basin, Northwest Australia. There is some formation identified as sandstone reservoir with clay content which is usually called shaly sand based on the screening between resistivity log and density log. Clay content caused lower resistivity log readings so the shaly sand reservoir is considered as non-reservoir. To overcome this, a method besides the conventional method was applied to analyze the petrophysical parameters of shaly sand reservoir, it was shaly sand method. Petrophysical analysis is

One of the primary methods to determine water saturation is logging measurement which uses water saturation models.

Lack of resolution in the distribution of sand injectites in hydrocarbon fields is common and makes it difficult to predict drilling challenges and plan for optimum production. A practical workflow was developed that enables the distinction of shale and sand bodies by using a combination of low-resolution seismic data and high-resolution resistivity log data. Measured resistivity logs were used to predict synthetic velocity logs, which accurately match shale velocities and over- or underestimate velocities of other rock types. The synthetic velocity logs were spatially distributed in a 3D cube

Abstract:
A novel anisotropic approach for the quantitative interpretation of laminated shaly sands is presented. The method was created to deal with thinly laminated formations consisting of layers of shaly sand and shale. The interpretation of the elastic properties of rocks and the effects of fluid substitution is of particular interest. Providing the interpretation in situations when the input data are limited is the primary motivation and challenge. The key idea is the explicit treatment of the dispersed and laminated clay within the framework of effective medium theory. Derived formulas for format

Abstract:
Sand injectites on the Norwegian Continental Shelf have proven their commercial significance. Some are already producing, e.g., Volund, Viper, Balder, Ringhorne, and Kobra Fields, while others such as in production licenses (PL) 340 and 869 have recently been discovered and appraised. Extensive literature on the geology of sand injectites has been published (e.g., Jenssen et al., 1993; Jolly and Lonergan, 2002; Huuse et al., 2003; Hurst et al., 2005). However, few references are available on the petrophysical and geophysical aspects of sand injectite reservoirs. This paper discusses the petrop

Abstract:
Evaluation of Petrophysical Characteristics using well-log data in the Bornu-Chad Basin, North-Eastern Nigeria has been performed. The main goal of the research is to evaluate the reservoir potentials of the field through the analysis, and evaluation of key petrophysical parameters from wireline logs which could be used to generate an effective reservoir model. A total of six wells were evaluated parameters on Porosity, Permeability, Density, Shale Volume and the Share and Compressional velocities. The research uses empirical relations to compute the properties at depths using Excel software.

Abstract:
The sequence stratigraphy of Amangi field of the Niger Delta was studied using seismic data and well logs. The field is a structurally complex one and presents serious challenges to hydrocarbon exploration and production. The main objective of these analyses is to identify sand intervals using the available data. Well log data were used as additional tools to constrain the seismic correlations in order to solve the correlation problem. The well logs were evaluated for the field’s petrophysical properties by combining the gamma ray and resistivity logs to determine reservoir zones with consider

Abstract:
The effects of clay conduction on the electrical behavior of shaly sandstones at low frequencies are analyzed by considering self‐similar mixtures of conductive grains, as representative of these porous rocks. An essential step in this model is the representation of the surface conductivities of the clay platelets by an equivalent volume conductivity. Based on their pattern of occurrence, the clays are treated either as a continuous coating over the sand grains or as individual detrital grains mixed with a nonconductive mineral matrix. In the first case, the solids are modeled as layered condu

Abstract:
In hydrocarbon reservoirs, the accuracy of hydrocarbon saturation depends on the precision of the water saturation and resistivity (Sw and Rw). A significant interpretation parameter is the resistivity of formation water (interstitial water or connate water which is, uncontaminated by the drilling mud that saturates the porous formation rock) because it is appropriate for the calculations of saturation (water and/or hydrocarbon) from basic resistivity logs. The most reliable way to determine this value is through the determination of the chemical composition or resistivity of uncontaminated co
