Petroleum geophy

1. 1. INTRODUCTION
Geology is the science that deals with the history and structure of the earth and its life forms, especially as
recorded in the rock record. A basic understanding of its concepts and processes is essential in the petroleum
industry, for it is used to predict where oil accumulations might occur. It is the job of the petroleum
geologist to use his/her knowledge to reconstruct the geologic history of an area to determine whether the
formations are likely to contain petroleum reservoirs. It is also the job of the geologist to determine whether
the recovery and production of these hydrocarbons will be commercially profitable.
The physical characteristics of a reservoir, how petroleum originated and in what type of rock, what types of
fluids exist in the reservoir, how hydrocarbons become trapped, and basic well log analysis are some of the
concepts vital to the production and recovery efforts of any exploration or energy service company.
2. INTRODUCTION TO GEOLOGICAL MAP
Subsurface geological maps are perhaps the most important vehicle used to explore for un discovered
hydrocarbons and to develop proved hydrocarbon reservoir. However, aspect of petroleum exploration and
exploration .as afield developed from its initial discovery a large volume of well log seismic and production
data are obtained with these data the accuracy of the subsurface interpretation is improved through time.
2.1. STURCTURE CONTOUR MAP:
A structure contour is the trace of a horizontal line on a surface (e.g., on a formation
top or a fault). The dip direction of the surface is perpendicular to the contour lines and the dip amount is
proportional to the spacing between the contours. Structure contours provide an effective method for
representing the three-dimensional form of a surface in two dimensions.
2.2. ISOPACH MAPS:
An isopach map is used to show thickness trends from measurements at isolated points. An isopach map can
be interpreted as a paleotopographic map if the upper surface of the unit was close to horizontal at the end of
deposition. If the paleotopography was controlled by structure, then it can be considered to be a
paleostructure map. The thickness variations represent the structure at the base of the unit as it was at the
end of deposition of the unit. The trend of increased thickness down the center of the map in could imply a
filled paleovalle.

2. 3. WELL LOCATION MAP:
Well location map determines the coordinates (X-Y) in the field by using the given data in table (1-1):
