Petrophysical Analysis

Petrophysical Analysis and Interpretation is the key component of each reservoir characterization analysis. It is one of the fundamental technical focus areas across almost all upstream businesses, from initial exploration to final field abandonment. Integration of well logs, cores, mudlogs, well tests, and other geological and engineering information allows to recognize of key reservoir properties impacting well productivity, identify pay zones, and minimize risk. Petrophysical Analysis and Interpretation provides reliable answers about porosity, permeability, or hydrocarbon saturation and plays a critical role in resource assessment and well placement development, and reservoir surveillance.

Bednarski Geoscience offers a wide variety of specialized petrophysical products dedicated to seismic analysis and interpretation. We cover all the essential steps from log data clean-up for seismic well-ties, through shear and density estimation for seismic inversion to well feasibility study and rock physics for reservoir characterization. However, the significant problem with wells is their spatial distribution is almost always insufficient. To fill gaps between them and overcome this horizontal resolution problem, we can integrate petrophysical data and seismic attributes into one 3D property model. Full-field coverage with petrophysical properties such as TOC, porosity, or lithology results in a better geological and geophysical interpretation, well planning optimization, and field development.
