Modeling of Petrophysical Properties and Reserve Estimation of Mishrif Formation-Garraf Oil Field

Abstract

Abstract In this study a build-up a 3D geologic model both depend on the information of field and subsurface is a usual task in geologic studies including resource evaluation and hazard assessment. During this study a 3D geologic model for Mishrif Formation in Garraf oil field has been set-up by using petrel 2015 software system. Mishrif Formation represents the foremost important reservoir in Garraf oil field. Four vertical oil wells and one directional well were chosen in Garraf Oil Field so as to set-up structural and petrophysical models delineated by a 3D static geologic model in 3 dimensions. The structural closure is shifted from GA-3 well to GA-A1P well. Mishrif Formation was divided into 10 zones. Sequential Gaussian Simulation algorithm was used to build-up Petrophysical model (NTG, permeability, water saturation and porosity) for Mishrif Formation keeping with information analyses and also the results from modeling the units (M1.2, L1 and L1.2) are thought-about as prime quality reservoir units because of the high PHIE and low water saturation. Units (L2, L2.2, L2.3 and L2.4) are thought-about as poor reservoirs because of low PHIE and high water saturation, and non-reservoir units include (Top Mishrif, M1 and M2) thus, they represent cap units. Cross sections of petrophysical model were conducted to Illustrate the vertical and horizontal distribution of porosity, permeability, Net to gross and water saturation between wells within the field. This study calculated the reserves of the Mishrif formation of Garraf oilfield by petrel, that alter the issue that the reserves parameters are difficult to properly acquire when estimate complex reservoir’s reserves in terms of ancient volume technique.
