Data Analysis
Sedimentological logging of carbonate and clastic cores and outcrops:
- this is an essential step in
understanding the relationship between depositional environments, sequence
stratigraphy, diagenesis and the present day reservoir properties
Petrography:
- Carbonate and clastics semi-quantitative petrographic databasing and
microfacies analysis of ditch cuttings, core and outcrop samples
Diagenesis:
- Applied carbonate and clastic diagenesis and detailed cement
stratigraphy
- Temperature, timing and nature of diagenetic phases and relationship
with burial history, hydrocarbon migration and porosity evolution
-
Design and interpretation of analytical programmes, including:SEM
XRD
Cathodoluminescence petrography
Fluid inclusion microthermometry
Stable isotopes
Borehole image log interpretation:
- Facies interpretation, calibration with core, and integration with
fracture and geomechanics studies
