The relevance. Well geophysics is considered as a typical method that can assist in determining the petrophysics properties of reservoirs and further location of the petroleum product-containing reservoirs. For reservoirs formed from fractured basement rock, studies on the petrophysics properties of fracture zones can contribute to the identification of petroleum products. The main aim. The study applied the cross-plotting method based on raw well-logging data to identify the possible correlation between the gamma-ray logging with well-logging including neutron porosity, sonic transient time, and bulk density in three wells (BH-433, BH-809, and BH-905) of Bach Ho field in the Cuu Long Basin, Vietnam. Methods. To deploy this study, well-logging data were integrated into formation of micro images and neutro, speed of sound, and density of the basement at the surveyed reservoir positions. Results. The results indicated that granite in the investigated zones responds to the two tight value ranges (no-oil exist zones) neutro (0,000–0,100) and speed of sound (46–64), and neutro (0,000–0,100) and density (2,375–2,750) while the value ranges deviate from 0,000–0,100, 46–64, and 2,375–2,750, respectively for neutro, speed of sound, and density are closely related to the good permeability and porosity zones (oil exist zones). Based on the findings, it can be confirmed that the cross-plotting analysis has contributed positively to the initial assessment of potential ranges of the oil reservoirs in Bach Ho field. The application of the cross-plotting method will contribute to enhancing the predictability of oil and gas in the reservoirs.
