- 3. Summary Objectives • Previous traditional models underestimated OIP • Run Thin Bed Process for higher resolution characterization • Build a 3D geological model and distribute facies and petrophysical properties • Update Original Oil in Place • Recommend new drilling opportunities and bypassed pay recompletions Inputs • 28 wells, directional surveys, wireline logs • Well formation tops • Interpreted structure maps • Seismic amplitude • Geologic depositional model • Well completion and production history Petrophysical Overview • Wells were analyzed using the comprehensive modeling process for Thin Bed environments • All data was incorporated into the 3D reservoir modeling process Geological Observations • The depositional system characterized as a fluvial deltaic system with channel and lobe deposits • Reservoir trapping appears to be primarily structural with possible stratigraphic elements
- 5. Thin Bed Analysis • Ability to get high resolution results from conventional data • Higher resolution answers from old log data • Important for highly laminated and low contrast intervals FEATURES • Better net-to-gross determination • Better determination of hydrocarbons in place • Better perm determination • High resolution analysis BENEFITS
- 6. Input Data Requirements Minimum requirement • Resistivity/SP (best results occur when triple combo data is available) • One high resolution device (i.e. shallow resistivity or some device that indicates laminations)
- 7. How Thin Bed Analysis Works • Utilizes second derivative to determine inflection points along log • Adjustable for given area, like multi-layer simulator • Corrects RT, Density, GR and Neutron for thin beds

- 39. Conclusions and Recommendations • Previous study recommended two successful wells: A-15 and A-19 that are still producing today. • Addition of this new well data and refined Thin Bed log processing has resulted in an improved reservoir model. • Improved model has increased the hydrocarbon volumes to account for the over production of initial estimate. • The following are recommendations for further field development: 3 new wells and 2 recompletions. A new well should be planned to test the 5900’ zone and the 6000’ zone at a location just between the A10 and A8 wells. This was proven successful with the new A19 well. Re-complete the A14 well in the 6000’ zone before leaving the well. Re-complete the 6050’ zone in the A2 well. A well should be considered between the A8 and the A14 wells for the 6000’- 6050’ zones as the model indicates good properties in that location. A well should be considered between the A9 and the fault to the West as both the A9 and 8461_2 show overbank deposits leaving room for good quality sand to the West with good amplitude. The Thin Bed log processing has resulted in a higher resolution model and increased hydrocarbon volume by ~40% addressing the overproduction concern as well as a better understand of the reservoir connectivity and stratigraphic traps created by thin coalescing channel bodies.
