By utilizing prestack seismic inversion, researchers were able to extract the reservoir properties of the Smeaheia area and identified the Sognefjord Formation as having the best potential for CO2 storage.
Evaluating any subsurface CO2 storage site comprises the reservoir, seal, and overburden investigation to mitigate injection and storage-related complications. The Upper-Middle Jurassic Sognefjord, Fensfjord, and Krossfjord formation sandstones are potential CO2 storage reservoirs at the Smeaheia area, northern North Sea. The Smeaheia area is located east of the Troll oil and gas field. The Upper Jurassic organic-rich Heather and Draupne Formation shales are the main seals for the sandstone reservoirs. In this study, we carried out a prestack seismic inversion to obtain elastic property cubes of acoustic impedance (AI), velocity ratio (Vp/Vs), and bulk density (RhoB). From these elastic cubes, we obtained the reservoir properties such as porosity (Phi), shaliness (Vsh), and permeability (k) of Sognefjord, Fensfjord, and Krossfjord formations. We introduced two new equations to extract the shale volume and porosity cubes from the inverted elastic cubes in the present study. These equations are nonlinear based on the AI versus Vp/Vs rock physics template. Both equations are correlated first with the well log data and then applied on the elastic property cubes (AI versus Vp/Vs) to obtain the Vsh and Phi property cubes. An additional porosity cube (PhiD) was generated from the inverted RhoB for comparison. Finally, using an empirical equation, permeability was extracted from the porosity cube. The reservoir properties we derived from 3D seismic, in addition to the well log, revealed the vertical and lateral variations of porosity, shaliness, and permeability in the Smeaheia area. We used these reservoir properties to infer the depositional environment and the viability of reservoirs for CO2 storage. The depositional environments identified were shoreface and deltaic from the extracted sand-body geometries. We found the Sognefjord Formation possessing the best reservoir properties, followed by the Fensfjord Formation as the secondary storage potential. In contrast, the Krossfjord Formation owed the lowest reservoir quality in the Smeaheia area.
