Summary: Introduction to the oil industry and oil show evaluation: a personal retrospective -- The basics of traps, seals, reservoirs and shows -- Drilling, mud logging, wireline logs and cores -- Understanding seals, pressures and hydrodynamics -- Quantifying seals and saturations—capillary pressure, pseudo-capillary pressure and quantitative show assessment -- Basic well log analysis, quick look techniques, pitfalls and volumetrics -- Using fluid inclusion data in exploration -- Shows and geochemistry: extracting more information from source rocks and hydrocarbons -- Building and testing migration models -- Appendices -- Common conversion equations and fluid classifications -- Constructing Winland pore throat graphs in Excel -- Equations in Excel to convert mercury-injection capillary pressure data to height above free water -- Equations in Excel to make pseudo-capillary pressure curves -- Converting paleogeographic maps or shapefiles in ARCGIS to grids.Summary: The book covers in detail the ways to differentiate between residual and continuous phase (trapped) oil, false shows and shows associated with source rocks and tight oil and gas reservoirs (potential unconventional targets). Case histories of finding by-passed plays, new migration routes and new fields will be shown for each major topic. All of these materials are presented in the context of modern petroleum systems modeling of migration and charge, with an emphasis on how to calibrate and test the validity of the computer models. Lastly, exercises are included to reinforce the concepts in each chapter.PPN: PPN: 1657763099Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXEN | ZDB-2-ENE
