Abstract

An integrated 3D sesmic data and a suit of well logs of Fareed six wells located at the Fareed field Niger Delta Nigeria were analysed with Petro Tech Software for reservoir characterization and volumetric analysis. Average reservoir parameters such as porosity (0.30), hydrocarbon saturation (0.25), gross thickness (27 m), and net thickness (0.7) were derived from petrophysical analysis. Sesmic section analysis showed fault assisted anticlinal structures which served as structural traps. The volume of hydrocarbon originally in place was estimated to be 325,000 million barrels of oil within Fareed field.
