The influence of carbonate textures and rock composition on durability cycles and geomechanical aspects of carbonate rocks

Gamil M. S. Abdullah et al.

Summary: The slake durability of carbonate rocks, influenced by mineralogical composition and strength, was tested through drying and wetting cycles. Results showed significant loss in mechanical properties after four cycles, especially in unconfined compressive strength (UCS). The study highlights the importance of understanding and accurately calculating the degradation behavior of carbonate rocks for engineering applications, and suggests further research into the effect of slaking fluid on limestone durability.

Multi-scale characterization of unconventional tight carbonate reservoir: Insights from October oil filed, Gulf of Suez rift basin, Egypt

Ahmed E. Radwan et al.

Summary: The Radwany Formation in the Gulf of Suez region has been newly identified as a potential reservoir rock with a combination of depositional and diagenetic processes creating various porosity types. Petrophysical evaluations and geochemical analysis have indicated the presence of unconventional and conventional hydrocarbon resources in this formation, particularly in the basal part, making it a valuable area for exploration. The study also highlights the importance of understanding the link between sediment microfacies and petrophysical parameters for predicting hydrocarbon potential in the area.

Provenance, palaeoweathering and tectonic setting of the Kuldhar Member Shale (Callovian-Oxfordian), Jaisalmer Formation, western Rajasthan

Shaikh Asjad et al.

Summary: The geochemical study of the Kuldhar Member Shale in western Rajasthan revealed that it is a Fe-shale with contributions from various rock formations. The source area experienced moderate to high chemical weathering under warm and humid climatic conditions, with sediment source shifting from distal to local over time, indicating a tectonically active basin.

Control of depositional and diagenetic processes on the reservoir properties of the Mishrif Formation in the AD oilfield, Central Mesopotamian Basin, Iraq

Huan Wang et al.

Summary: The study on Mishrif carbonates in the Central Mesopotamian Basin of Iraq shows a wide range of rock fabrics and diagenetic features that impact reservoir quality and flow properties. A homoclinal ramp geometry model with twelve microfacies types is proposed, showing low-energy conditions in the ramp. Two main diagenetic features shape reservoir properties, including early diagenetic dissolution and preferential cementation, leading to distinctive reservoir qualities.

Microfacies and reservoir quality of the Middle Cretaceous Rumaila Formation in the AD oilfield, central Mesopotamian Basin, southern Iraq

Hangyu Liu et al.

Summary: The Middle Cretaceous Rumaila Formation in the Central Mesopotamian Basin is composed of thick carbonate deposits and serves as a significant reservoir unit. The microfacies analysis revealed vertical variations and distinct reservoir qualities within different sedimentary facies belts. This study highlights the importance of sedimentary facies variation and early diagenesis in controlling reservoir quality and heterogeneity, providing insights for predicting reservoir quality in carbonate reservoirs with similar sedimentary and diagenetic processes.
