Abstract

The present work is devoted to study the geologic setting, reservoir characterization and hydrocarbon detection with conventional and advanced well log methods for Kafr El-Sheikh Formation at Sapphire field, Offshore Nile Delta, Egypt. The used wells are Sapphire-Da, Db, Dc, De, Dh and Dq. By using open hole logging tools, advanced logging tool like Modular dynamic tester (MDT), Mud log during drilling and conventional core that analyzed carefully, to detect the clean sandstone and thin bedded sandstone of the study Location.
These basic well log tools (Gamma Ray, Resistivity, Density and Neutron) reflectclean sandstone reservoir with good way, but can’t detectthin bedded sandstone reservoir, as a result of their low vertical resolution, this may miss several intervals charged with hydrocarbons during perforation and production from the field.So, we should run advanced tool like the Modular Dynamic Tester (MDT) and analyze conventional core, if found, and the hydrocarbons in Mud log to detect these missed intervals. Also by using the conventional cores and mud logging while drilling.
The results had showed clean sandstone and thin bedded sandstone reservoirsthroughthe advanced well log tools, which identify more than 68% deep water reserve didn’t use beforethis should be takeninto consideration in the future wells, workover wells, excellent distribution of facies in both the static and dynamic models, to increase the hydrocarbon production and life time of producible wells. . The optimum location for forthcoming wells is south west of the field, because it has the best petrophysical parameters. It has high porosity, hydrocarbon saturation, and net to gross, in addition to low shale volume.
