The Petroleum Institute | Annual Report - Academic Year 2011 - 2012 Duration: February 2012-February 2013 Summary of the project: The goal of the project is to develop a field-wide, 3D reservoir model for the impact of various diagenetic processes on reservoir heterogeneities of the Jurassic Arab Formation in the Umm Shaif Field, offshore Abu Dhabi by means of geostatistical methods. Project Title: Stylolites, Porosity Controls and Dense Zones in Lower Cretaceous Reservoirs of the Sahil Field, Abu Dhabi Name of Sponsor: ADNOC Upstream Research Oil-Subcommittee Team members: Dr. Sadoon Morad Dr. Ihsan Al-Aasm Dr. Stephen Ehrenberg (Sultan Qaboos University) Amena Al-Harethi (M.Sc. student) Amount awarded: USD 268,000 Duration: March 2012-March 2013 Summary of the project: This study aims to use petrographic, geochemical, and fluid inclusion analyses in order to better understand the parameters controlling the distribution of stylolites and their impact on diagenesis and related reservoir quality evolution pathways. In order to achieve the study goal, core samples will be studied from flank and crest of Lower Cretaceous Thamama limestone from Sahil Field, onshore Abu Dhabi, UAE.
