The reservoir quality of the Lower Triassic Montney Formation in the Puskwaskau Field was assessed based on four lithofacies, with L-3 having the best reservoir quality, L-1 and L-4 having poor reservoir quality, and L-2 considered fair. Analysis of properties such as porosity, permeability, pore throat radius, clay content, and cementation revealed the differences in reservoir quality among the lithofacies. The results highlight the importance of lithofacies classification in understanding reservoir characteristics in the producing field.
The reservoir quality of the Lower Triassic (Induan-Olenekian) Montney Formation of the Puskwaskau Field is assessed from two cored intervals. Four lithofacies are identified in the present study: these are defined by their detailed sedimentological characteristics. Lithofacies 1 (L-1) is composed of interlaminated bituminous very fineto medium-grained siltstone and dolomitic medium-to coarse-grained siltstone. Lithofacies 2 (L-2) consists of interbedded dolomitic medium-to coarse-grained siltstone and bituminous very fine-to medium-grained siltstone. Lithofacies 3 (L-3) is dominated by bitumen-stained dolomitic medium-to coarse-grained siltstone. Lithofacies 4 (L-4) is characterized by dense, dolomitic coarse-grained siltstone to very fine-grained sandstone. Sediments within the study area are interpreted to have been deposited within a wave-to storm-influenced shoreface and offshore transition zone, comprising conformable progradational successions. The reservoir quality of these deposits is evaluated by comparing reservoir characteristics of each lithofacies. Analyzed properties include porosity, permeability, pore throat radius, clay content and cementation. Winland plots are used to show the predicted pore-throat diameters of lithofacies based on measured permeability (to air). The reservoir quality of L1 is poor, with pore-throat radii ranging from 0.10 to 0.45 mu m (micropores). The reservoir quality of L-2 is considered fair, with pore-throat radii ranging from 0.11 to 0.94 mu m (micro- and mesopores). L-3 has the best reservoir quality in this study, with pore-throat radii ranging from 0.20 to 3.01 mu m (mesopores). The reservoir quality of L-4 is considered poor due to pervasive dolomite cementation. Pore-throat radii for L-4 range from 0.17 to 0.25 mu m (micropores). The range of values observed within each lithofacies effectively constrains the reservoir characteristics and demonstrate the correspondence of lithofacies classification to reservoir quality in this producing field.
