Abstract
Abstract: Exploratory Applications of Log Calculated Formations Pressures
and Temperatures
By
Reasonably accurate formation pressures
and temperatures can be obtained
from well logs. These subsurface pressures
and temperatures have an important relationship
with the diagenesis of clayey
sediments and the distribution types of oil and gas reservoirs. We can use these
relationships along with the more conventional
techniques to assist us in defining
the subsurface environment as to the favorability
of finding producible and commercial
reservoirs in any geographical area.
The application of these concepts should
be considered as an additional tool of the
explorationist to assist him in finding commercial oil and gas reservoirs that will
become more difficult to find with more
competition in future years using traditional
techniques.
Several field examples and case histories will be shown to illustrate these principles. End_of_Record - Last_Page 1---------------
