Petrophysical and Geomechanical Analysis to Delineating Reservoirs in the Miocene Niger Delta Region of Nigeria
Odunayo Tope Ojo
Abstract:The application of various petrophysical and elastic metrics has advanced reservoir characterization and provided critical geological formation information. Porosity declines with depth, according to sonic, neutron, and density logs. Lithology, pressure, and hydrocarbons all contribute to this. Formation resistivity and fluid saturation are used to identify hydrocarbon-bearing zones. Because oil and gas are non-conductive, hydrocarbon-containing rocks are more resistant than water. In lithological categorizati… Show more
