The Taranaki Basin has an area of 100,000km2 and is the main source of petroleum in New Zealand, with most of its well located offshore. The reservoir of Kupe Field is located within the Farewell Formation, which is mainly composed by sandstones, siltstones and interbedded with claystones in some locations. This produces a high variability in the s...

The best characterization of the petroleum reservoirs properties requires direct measurements on the cores; however, the latter are not always available due to various technical and geological problems during coring operation. To solve this issue, the challenge is to seek for effective and fast tool to reconstruct non cored lithofacies as well as e...

Integrated seismic reservoir characterization (ISRC) approach was used to merge seismic and petrophysical analysis to characterize potential hydrocarbon reservoirs present in "KJOE field", onshore , Niger-Delta, Nigeria. Available data used include suites of six well logs with petrophysical logs (GR log, resistivity log, neutron and density logs),...
