Figure 5. Case II: (A) Strontium isotope residual salt analysis suggests two possible barriers or baffles to flow in the original hole, whereas geochemical oil fingerprinting (B) clearly indicates nearly identical fluids above and below the first possible barrier in the original hole. Also, the side-track fluid is identical to the original hole fluid samples, indicating possible communication.
