Evaluation of Reservoir’s Petrophysical Parameters, Niger Delta, Nigeria

Petrophysical analysis was performed in two wells in the Niger Delta Region, Nigeria. This study is aimed at making available petro-physical data, basically water saturation calculation using cementation values of 2.0 for the reservoir formations of two wells in the Niger delta basin. A suite of geophysical open hole logs namely Gamma ray; Resistivity, Sonic, Caliper and Density were used to determine petrophysical parameters. The parameters determined are; volume of shale, porosity, water saturation, irreducible water saturation and bulk volume of water. The thickness of the reservoir varies between 127ft and 1620ft. Average porosity values vary between 0.061 and 0.600; generally decreasing with depth. The mean average computed values for the Petrophysical parameters for the reservoirs are: Bulk Volume of Water, 0.070 to 0.175; Apparent Water Resistivity, 0.239 to 7.969; Water Saturation, 0.229 to 0.749; Irreducible Water Satu-ration, 0.229 to 0.882 and Volume of Shale, 0.045 to 0.355. The findings will also enhance the proper characterization of the reservoir sands.
