Abstract:Plutonic rocks typically have negligible matrix porosity and permeability. However, fractures and mineral alterations create storage space and flow pathways that turn plutonic rocks into fluid reservoirs. Despite significant hydrocarbon discoveries, naturally fractured reservoirs in plutonic rocks have been poorly studied. In most Colombian basins, the crystalline basement has undergone multiple deformational events and is thrust over the Cretaceous to Cenozoic source and reservoir rocks of the conventional pe… Show more
