Increasing the Efficiency with Wireline Formation Testers and Reducing the Fluid Uncertainties in Thin-Laminated Low Permeability Reservoirs with in the Western Desert, Egypt
Abstract:Many sedimentary features of hydrocarbons at Western Desert are characterized as multilayered, deltaic, thinly and tight laminated sandstones consisting of sands with limited lateral and vertical extension. Relying only on conventional openhole log data and performing correlations among nearby wells proved to be inconclusive in identifying hydrocarbons reservoirs owing to their thin beds, high shale content, and variable formation water resistivity. Missing hydrocarbon-bearing formations translates into lost p… Show more
