Abstract: Determination of Reservoir Fluid Content by Seismic Modeling
Jack R. Barnes, Jack V. Glinkman, Meziane Boussa
In a study to determine whether it would be possible to reduce the risk of developing the oil rim potential of a large gas field in Algeria using seismic data, seismic modeling showed distinct character changes depending on the fluid content of the reservoir rocks. These character changes correlated with the seismic data in zones where the fluid content was established by well control. The modeling study also was helpful in making structural interpretation of the field.
