Abstract :

Several studies has been performed on modelling petrophysical properties of reservoirs in the Niger Delta region, this study consider the use of PetroMod. Seal characteristics had been included to emphasize its significance in prospect evaluation. In this study the reservoir porosity was derived to range 20.45% and 23.18%, and permeability in the range of155md and 355md. The seal characteristics derived are 2x10 –3md, 13.4% and 11.82% for permeability and porosity. The pore pressures were 71.79% and 69.34% of the Lithostatic pressure, while the retention capacities are 12.73 MPa and 16.55MPa for the reservoirs. The characteristics derived indicate that the reservoir are none overpressured for which there is no leaky tendency for the seal/caprock.
