Abstract
The West Nile Delta basin is a major petroleum habitat, hosting many gas and condensate fields, made up of combination structural and stratigraphic traps, involving sandstone reservoirs of Pliocene and Miocene age, where turbidity hydrocarbon reservoirs with significant amounts of hydrocarbon volumes are located. Lithology, fluid saturation, effective porosity, and permeability calculations are very challenging in such a heterogeneous environment, where the petrophysical parameter varies significantly vertically and laterally. Abu Qir gas field is located about 38 Km northeast of Alexandria. The field considered one of the most prospective fields in shallow Mediterranean Sea, producing from Pliocene Kafr El-Sheikh Formation and late Miocene Abu-Madi Formation, since 1979 until now, as its first discovery was in 1969, when the wild cat well AQ-1X drilled targeting Miocene Abu Madi Formation sand. This is a practical study that aims to evaluate the hydrocarbon prospecting, the petrophysical characteristics and the formation pressure of the reservoir rocks in the Nile Delta Neogene Stratigraphic Section in the offshore Abu Qir field focusing on the challenges in such heterogeneous Formations e.g. thin beds identification , pressure regimes, channel complex distribution and well logging analysis results uncertainties in order to evaluate the best quality reservoirs to locate new drillable wells. Geological and petrophysical data of four wells were considered (NAQPI2, NAQPI-4, NAQPI-6 and NAQPI-9). The petrophysical features using, electric logs, conventional cores, mud logs and subsurface geological data were obtained, extracted and processed to evaluate the characteristics of reservoir beds in the target formations. The Miocene Abu Madi Formation and the Pliocene Kafr El-Sheikh Formation sand channel complex are the main gas reservoirs in Abu Qir Field. The study revealed that Kafr El Sheikh Formation contains two reservoir beds; the Upper sandstone beds called (Intra Kafr Elsheikh Formation) and the lower Sandstone beds called (Basal Kafr Elsheikh Formation). In addition, the hydrocarbon potential was proofed in the Miocene Abu Madi Formation sandstone that overlay Qawasim Formation Sandstone.
