Study on Petroleum Reservoirs Controlled by Sedimentary Facies in Chepaizi Area

Facies Modeling of Heterogeneous Carbonates Reservoirs by Multiple Point Geostatistics

Facies modeling is an essential part of reservoir characterization. The connectivity of facies model is very critical for the dynamic modeling of reservoirs. Carbonate reservoirs are so heterogeneous that variogram-based methods like sequential indicator simulation are not very useful for facies modeling. In this paper, multiple point geostatistics (MPS) is used for facies modeling in one of th...

Microbial diversity in petroleum reservoirs

Buried hydrocarbon deposits, such as liquid petroleum, represent an abundant source of reduced carbon for microbes. It is not surprising therefore that many organisms have adapted to an oily, anaerobic life deep underground, often at high temperatures and pressures, and that those organisms have had, and in some cases continue to have, an effect on the quality and recovery of the earth’s dimini...

Strike-Slip Basin – Its Configuration and Sedimentary Facies

First Record of Fresh Water Gastropods and Sedimentary Facies of Nezam-Abad area, South-East Bam, Iran

Sediments of the Nezam-Abad area, south-east of Bam have been studied for the first time. Sedimentary facies are composed of thin-bedded clay, silt and fine grained sand interbedded with thin laminated limestone. Chemical analysis of X-Ray florescent indicates that more than 50% of sediments consist of silisium and aluminum oxide that can be used for reconstruction of environment. Ninety eight ...
