    Important Parameters

    Saturation (S), n. [Formation Evaluation]

    The relative amount of water, oil and gas in the pores of a rock, usually.formation water is assumed to contain hydrocarbons. Mathematically thiscan be expressed as:

    Shc = 1 Sw

    Where Shc = hydrocarbon saturation

    Sw = water saturation

    If Sw is low, the formation is potentially productive

    The ability of a material to resist electrical conduction. It is the.

    resistivity is a property of the material, whereas the resistancealso depends on the volume measured.

    Porosity

    Density Log, n. [Formation Evaluation]A well log that records formation density. The logging tool consists of agamma-ray source (e.g., Cs137) and a detector shielded from the source sothat it records backscattered gamma rays from the formation (Comptonscattering). The backscattering depends on the electron density of theformation, which is roughly proportional to the bulk density.

    That basic information is time, amplitude, frequency and

    Seismic attributes may be defined as all the information,

    Why create a realistic reservoir property model?

    We are making big decisions based on limited data Maximize the usage of all information optimise production

    Correct upscaling of logs and a proper facies interpretation

    is important Reservoir properties are critical factors affecting production

    Examples of Geostatistics

    Analysis of variables in space Samples located close to each other are probably more

    similar than samples located far from each other

    The spatial coordinates of the observed samples are builtinto the statistic formulas

    Sequential Approach to Property Modeling

    1. Defining the geometry and stratigraphic layering of the reservoir interval to bemodeled Involves the development of a conceptual model for the major architecture and continuity of

    facies, porosity and permeability witihin each layer

    2. The facies rock types are modeled by either (1) cell-based or (2) object-based

    3. The porosity is modeled on a by-facies basis before permeability because thereare more reliable porosity data available

    4. The 3-D models of permeability are constrained to the porosity, facies andayer ng prev ous y es a s e

    5. Multiple equally likely realizations are created by repeating the entire process Each realization is equally likely to be drawn; however, some realizations are more similar to

    others, hence their class has higher probability6. These models are input to a simulator or visualized and used to aid in decision

    making
