Geological Model for Jeribe/Euphrates Formation, Tertiary Reservoir in Qaiyarah Oil Field, North of Iraq

Visualization of subsurface geology is mainly considered as the framework of the required structure to provide distribution of petrophysical properties. The geological model helps to understand the behavior of the fluid flow in the porous media that is affected by heterogeneity of the reservoir and helps in calculating the initial oil in place as well as selecting accurate new well location. In this study, a geological model is built for Qaiyarah field, tertiary reservoir, relying on well data from 48 wells, including the location of wells, formation tops and contour map. The structural model is constructed for the tertiary reservoir, which is an asymmetrical anticline consisting of two domes separated by a saddle. It is found that the three formations in the tertiary reservoir is composed of limestone and dolomitic limestone with very thin shale rims introduced only in the Dhiban Formation, which have the minimum thickness compared to the main other two formations those considered the main reservoir units. Upscaling from the software has been used to distribute and correlate between the logs and core data, which came very acceptable results to be used for distribution to the entire field. Both log analysis and core data have showed that the reservoir is clean formation, no volume of shale has considered in the STIIOP calculations with average water saturation calculated to be 31.5% and average porosity of approximately 22% with temperature gradient of 1.2 °F/100 ft. This comes up with Stock Tank Initial Oil in Place calculated to be 6.519*109.

Seismic Structural Interpretation Study of Mishrif Formation in Nasiriyah Oil Field Southwestern Iraq

Seismic data interpretation study has been done for Mishrif Formation in Nasiriyah oil field at the southern part of Iraq in order to update the structural image of Mishrif reservoir which is currently the main unit bearing the oil in subsurface area covered about (447) km2. This study is achieved by using Petrel, IP, and other approval software. Seismic to well tie method in conventional qualitative interpretation used to re-identify the top and bottom of the Mishrif reservoir which converted into structural depth maps and then followed by constructing and developing 3-D structural model helped to understand the vertical and lateral thickness extensions heterogeneity of Mishrif Formation in the field. The cap rock (CRI) has thickness ra

Stratigraphy Analysis of the Nahr Umr Formation in Zubair oil field, Southern Iraq

     The Nahr Umr Formation is considered one of the main reservoirs produced in southern Iraq. It is one of the important siliciclastic deposits of the Cretaceous sequence of Iraq oilfields. Zubair oil fields ZB-190 and ZB-047 were chosen to study areas. This study depends on the available core and cutting samples to determine the facies analysis, depositional environments, petrographic characteristics and diagenesis processes. Based on the description of the core and the borehole, six types of facies were distinguished in the Nahr Umr Formation, resulting in an intercalated sandstone and shale with a thin layer of siltstone. The petrographic study of the clastic part of the Nahr Umr Formation showed that the sandstone is composed m

MICROFACIES STUDY OF HADIENE FORMATION (NORTH IRAQ)

In the region of the north of Iraq using the method of analyzing thin section microfacies to 38 of rockyslices which were gathered from a place near Aqra city. These slides are divided into seven microfacies depending on lithologcal component and fossils.

1) Dolostone facies.

2)Recrystallized bioclastic wackestone facies.

3) Bioclastic packstone microfacies

4)Sucrosic dolomite facies.

 5) Bioclastic grainstone in microfacies.

 According to water energy, these facies were divided to three zone:

  1. a) Low energy environment.
  2. b) Transitional zone.
  3. c) High energy environment.

Determination of Petrophysical characteristics using Techlog Software of Jeribe Reservoir in Hamrin - Allas Oilfield, Northern Iraq

       This study aims to assess the formation evaluation of the Jeribe Formation in Hamrin oilfield. The present study involved four selected wells of (Early- Mid Miocene) Jeribe Formation in Hamrin structure-Allas field; HR-2, HR-8, HR-9, and HR-16 located North of Iraq. The work deals with the available data that includes the most required information to improve such studies. Techlog Software V.2015 was used to carry out a reliable calculation of petrophysical properties utilizing conventional logs to determine the reservoir characteristics (lithology, porosity, and saturation). The computed CPI (software resulted) based on log information divided the Jeribe reservoir into two reservoir units (Jr-1 and Jr

Evaluating Petrophysical Properties of Sa'di Reservoir in Halfaya Oil Field

The petrophysical characteristics of five wells drilled into the Sa'di Formation in the Halfaya oil field were evaluated using IP software to determine a reservoir and explore hydrocarbon reserve zones. The lithology was evaluated using the M-N cross-plot method. The diagram showed that the Sa'di Formation was mainly composed of calcite (represented by the limestone region) is the main mineral in the Sa′di Reservoir. Using a density-neutron cross plot to identify the lithology showed that the formation mainly consists of limestone with minor shale. Gamma-ray logs were employed to calculate the shale quantity in each well. The porosity at weak hole intervals was calculated using a sonic log and neutron-density log at the reservoir

3D Facies Modeling of Mishrif Reservoir in Halfaya Oil Field

     This research deals with the study of the types and distribution of petrographic microfacies and Paleoenvironments of Mishrif Formation in Halfaya oil field, to define specific sedimentary environments. These environments were identified by microscopic examination of 35 thin sections of cutting samples for well HF-9H as well as 150 thin sections of core and cutting samples for well HF-I. Depending on log interpretation of wells HF-1, HF-316, HF-109, IIF-115, and IIF-272, the sedimentary facies were traced vertically through the use of various logs by Petrel 2013 software in addition to previous studies. Microfacies analysis showed the occurrence of six main Paleoenvironments within Mishrif succession, represented

The Role of Chemistry of the Oil-Field Water in the Distribution of Reservoir Pressures: A Case Study of Mishrif Reservoir in the Southern Oil-Fields, Iraq

Mishrif Formation is the main reservoir in oil-fields (North Rumaila, South Rumaila, Majnoon, Zubair and West Qurna) which located at Basrah southern Iraq. The Inductively coupled plasma-Mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) was used for the water chemistry analysis and Scanning Electron Microprobe (SEM) for the purpose of mineralogy diagnosis. A weak acidic water of salinity six-time greater than seawater plays a role in generating the formation pressure and controlling the fluid flow. The potentiometric subsurface maps were modeled and the direction of super-pressure sites that are of a great importance in the oil exploration were marked to pay attention during future drilling.
