Abstract
This study focuses on the intricate process of discerning productive layers within reservoir formations, taking the Sarvak Formation as a primary case. The employed methodology combines geology, comprehensive log interpretations, and petrophysical analyses to facilitate the evaluation of these productive layers. Initially, routine well logs are interpreted to determine key petrophysical parameters such as shale content, porosity, and water saturation. Subsequently, core measurement results are utilized for calibrating these log interpretations. The study further determines cut-off values through a calculated method of 5% cumulative hydrocarbon volume against porosity, shale content, and water saturation. These cut-off values are then applied to the petrophysical results to enhance their reliability. To resolve any inconsistencies or uncertainties in petrophysical evaluation, petrographical analyses, including scanning electron microscope imaging and thin section studies, are employed. The Sarvak Formation is categorized into seven distinct subzones, each thoroughly investigated to ascertain their respective productivity potential. The final results illustrate a substantial heterogeneity within the Sarvak Formation, revealing a range of diagenetic processes including compaction, dissolution, and cementation. Despite this complexity, three subzones are identified as the most productive layers with the maximum net pay, demonstrating the efficacy of the integrated approach.
