detection of oil-water contacts (owcs) is one of the primary tasks before evaluation of reservoir’s hydrocarbon in place, determining net pay zones and suitable depths for perforation operation. this paper introduces bayesian decision making tool as an effective technique in owc detecting using wire line logs. to compare strengths of the suggested method in detecting owc with conventional one, ...

The Oligo-miocene Asmari formation is one of the most important hydrocarbon reservoirs in the southwest of Iran. In order to evaluate reservoir quality and the factors controlling reservoir properties, detailed geological and petrophysical studies were carried out on 242 m of core samples from Asmari reservoir. This study is a part of a larger project that examines depositional history and rese...

In this research attempts were made to estimate the in-situ stresses acting on a hydrocarbon reservoir based on routine activities of acid injection in oil reservoir. It was found that the relation between the re-opening pressure of fracture and principal in-situ stresses can be estimated using rock mechanics equations for the circular underground cavities. An appropriate relation between the m...

the electrical resistivity of hydrocarbon reservoir rocks is an important parameters in the calculation of water and oil saturation percent in both carbonate and sandstone reservoir rocks.in this regard, most studies have concentrated on the confining  pressure on cementation factor and electrical resistivity in sandstone reservoir rocks. in this study the effect of confining pressure on cement...

  Application of Archie equation in carbonate reservoirs is not easy due to high dependence of its parameters on carbonate characteristics. Carbonates are very heterogeneous in nature and hydrocarbon reserve estimation in these reservoirs of mostly oil-wet and intermediate-wet is highly influenced by the input values of saturation exponent. To our knowledge, non representative oils have been us...
