Accurate Initial / Residual Saturation Determination reduces Uncertainty in Further Development and Reservoir Management of the Dulang Field, Offshore Peninsular Malaysia
Abstract:There have been published concerns that the log interpretation programs in the Malay Basin have not been providing accurate saturation estimates, and that estimation of residual oil saturations are erroneous, as previous coring procedures were not designed to maintain reservoir rock wettability. The most serious problems (and uncertainty) in the Dulang Field development planoptimization was, in the main, high apparent initial water saturation (with arange of 19 - 61%), inconsistent residual oil saturation resu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
