The Zagros Fold and Thrust Belt of NE Iraq hosts a prolific hydrocarbon system. Reservoirs are commonly found in fractured Cretaceous carbonates (Shiranish Formation) such as the Taq Field located Kirkuk Embayment foothills. Data providing information on fractures core, image logs flowmeters from wells, surface observations. For comparison, an outcrop study has been undertaken around Bina Bawi Anticline (10 km Field), where same stratigraphical unit is exposed continuous, lenticular-shaped...
Abstract The productivity of wells in fractured reservoirs depends, terms rate and sustainability, on the heterogeneity variable connectivity open fracture network. Outcrop studies Cretaceous carbonates from Catalan Pyrenees illuminate this issue reveal degree uncertainty associated with interpretation data seismic. Three examples are chosen to provide verifiable data, parameters concepts which can be applied workflow reservoir characterization. We discuss properties distributions subseismic...
The Zagros Fold and Thrust belt is one of the world's most prolific petroleum provinces. Most hydrocarbon reserves are stored in naturally fractured reservoirs such fracture systems can therefore have a significant impact on reservoir performance. Fractures important paths for fluid flow carbonate reservoirs. Fracture data were collected outcrops Kirkuk Group Oligocene age around Qara Chauq South North anticlines located near Oil Field. studied formations outcropping main units Bai Hassan...
Subsurface fractures control the flow of fluids through reservoirs containing economic resources. Fractures can act as conduits or barriers to fluid and understanding geometry fracture pattern is a crucial step in quantifying connectivity fractures, which major factor governing bulk permeability. Natural are not randomly distributed exhibit clustering various forms particularly damage zones around larger faults. We identify shape lozenges, refer area (volume) relatively undeformed sandstone...
