An accessible resource, covering the fundamentals of carbonate reservoir engineering
Includes discussions on how, where and why carbonate are formed, plus reviews of basic …

Significant heterogeneity in petrophysical properties, including variations in porosity and
permeability, are well documented from carbonate systems. These variations in physical …

This paper presents an outcrop-analog study of fractures in low-porosity sandstones in the
Subandean thrust belt. We analyze the evolution of fault and joint systems in these …

Exploration-scale cross sections of the Mississippian Madison Formation of Wyoming and
Montana show variations in the distribution of dolomite and porous dolomite in a sequence …

In this study, relationships between fracture patterns, lithology, thickness, diagenetic
processes and grain size are evaluated within Cretaceous sediments in two sections of …

The study evaluates pore systems in samples of tight Upper Permian Zechstein 2 Carbonate
(Z2C) facies from widely dispersed locations in the eastern and western parts of the …

Natural fractures are common in several unconventional reservoirs in the US and around the
world and, even when sealed with cements, can facilitate the propagation of induced …

Carbonate reservoirs are prone to natural fracturing. Fractures can act as enhanced
permeability pathways, which may increase, decrease, or complicate reservoir production …

We characterize relationships between stratigraphy and natural fractures in outcrops of
Mesozoic strata that rim the San Juan Basin in New Mexico and Colorado. These outcrops …

The fractured carbonate reservoir of the Oseil Oil Field was discovered in 1993 and
successfully appraised in 1998. This paper describes the results of the Kuwait Foreign …
