| Abstract: | The Eocene rock units of the Qadirpur field, Central Indus Basin (Pakistan), are investigated petrophysically for their detailed reservoir characterization. The different petrophysical parameters determined include the following: true resistivity, shale volume, total porosity, effective porosity, density and neutron porosity, water and hydrocarbon saturation, bulk volume of water, lithology, gas effect, P-wave velocity, movable hydrocarbon index and irreducible water saturation and integrated with different cross-plots. The Eocene reservoirs are excellent with high effective porosity (2–32 %) and hydrocarbon saturation (10–93 %). Among these, the Sui Upper Limestone is an overall a poor reservoir; however, it has some hydrocarbon-rich intervals with high effective porosity and better net pay. All the net pay zones identified show low and variable shale volume (5–30 %). The secondary porosity has added to the total and effective porosities in these reservoirs. The main contributors to the porosity are the chalky, intercrystalline and vuggy/fracture types. The thickness of the reservoirs zones ranges from 4.5 to 62 m. These reservoirs are gas-producing carbonates with almost irreducible water saturation (0.002–0.01) and are likely to produce water-free hydrocarbons. The lower values of moveable hydrocarbon index (0.07–0.9) show that the hydrocarbons are moveable spontaneously to the well bore. The proposed correlation model shows that the reservoirs have an inclined geometry and are a part of an anticlinal trap. |
