R1, R2, R3, and F. reservoir units were identified in the XYZ field. The reservoirs are within the Oil proven fault block and F reservoir is located on the footwall structure of the second synthetic fault with similar structural characteristics. The faulting in the XYZ field resulted in a downward movement of the XYZ Discovery relative to the XYZ prospects. The structural development process of the field was a syn-sedimentary. This explains why the XYZ-1 penetration in the footwall of the synthetic found oil-in F sand. However, petrophysical results show that the reservoirs of interests have good petrophysical properties with minimum porosity of 0.1 and maximum water saturation of 0.7. The discoveries by the XYZ-1 well prove the existence of a working hydrocarbon source and charge system. However the distribution pattern of the discovered hydrocarbons is not yet understood.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
