Petrophysical database project
The Industry Technology Facilitator (ITF), together with Energie Beheer Nederland (EBN) and Petroleum Development Oman (PDO), have launched a joint industry project (JIP) which will reduce time and costs for oil producers to determine whether gas fields are economically viable. The PETGAS III (Petrophysics of Tight Gas Sandstones) project sees the continuation of the work being conducted by University of Leeds in examining the petrophysical properties of tight gas sandstones. A robust database of key petrophysical properties has been formed to make rapid estimates of the properties of unknown samples based on their microstructure. The database of the petrophysical properties of tight gas sandstones will be used to improve the interpretation of wire-line log data for the characterisation of tight reservoirs during exploration, appraisal and production.
