3.1) Geologic Considerations
3.2) Reservoir Continuity
3.3) Reservoir Considerations
Normally, a tight reservoir can
be described as a layered
system.
In a clastic depositional system,
the layers are composed of:
Sandstone
Siltstone
Mudstone
Shale
In non clastic systems, layers
are composed of:
Limestone
Dolomite
Possibly halite or
anhydrite
The following data are required to use 3D
reservoir and fracture propagation models to
evaluate the formation, design the fracture
treatment, and forecast production rates and
ultimate recovery:
 Gross pay thickness
 Net pay thickness
 Permeability
 Porosity
 Water saturation
 Pressure
 In-situ stress
 Young’s modulus
The speed at which pressure transients
move through porous media is a function of
the:
 Formation permeability
 Fluid viscosity
 Fluid compressibility

3.4) Drilling and Completion Considerations
4) LOGGING IN TIGHT RESERVOIR
Logging is the important process in the petroleum sector.
Logging is important to find the hydrocarbon in to the reservoir and find the
lithology below the earth surface.
Factors identified by Logging in tight reservoir:
1)Location of the tight reservoir
2)Lithology
3)Natural fracture
4)Permeability
5)Porosity
6)Tightness
Different type of logs are used in tight reservoir to find its characteristics
Types of Logs:
1)SP (spontaneous potential)
2)NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance)
3)Resistivity
4)Neutron porosity and density log
5)Gamma ray log
6)Image

4.1) Spontaneous potential log
• Across the tight reservoir,
the current flowing in the
mud is constant, so the
potential gradient is
uniform.
