Integrating Petrophysical and Geomechanical Rock Properties for Determination of Fracability of the Iraqi Tight Oil Reservoir

Tight oil reservoirs have been a concerned of the industry due to their substantial influence on production. Due poor permeability, numerous problems are encountered while producing from tight reservoirs. Petrophysical and geomechanical rock properties essential for understanding assessing fracability reservoirs, especially enhance permeability. In this study, Saadi B reservoir in Halfaya Iraqi field is considered as main reservoir. estimated using full-set well logs vertical that penetrates validated with support diagnostic fracture injection test data employing standard equations correlations. Subsequently, breakdown pressures computed, two fracturing models developed. The petrophysical analysis infers has properties, findings indicate brittle ductile strata. These strata underlay overlay more formations than results DFIT quite consistent results. pressure reflects could easily be fractured by inserting equal 6250 psi. However, model design parameters manipulates height confinement within Formation its propagation Hartha and/or Tanuma Formations. Therefore, employment rocks assists formation demonstrating orientation direction.
