3D Integrated Structural, Facies and Petrophysical Static Modeling Approach for Complex Sandstone Reservoirs: A Case Study from the Coniacian-Santonian Matulla Formation, July Oilfield, Gulf of Suez, Egypt

Ahmed M. Ali et al.

Summary: The Matulla Formation in the Gulf of Suez Basin poses challenges for further reservoir exploitation due to its complex reservoir architecture, various lithologies, lateral facies variations, and heterogeneous reservoir quality. This study utilized multidisciplinary datasets and techniques to create 3D models of the Matulla reservoir, identifying areas with good quality reservoir and potential for hydrocarbon accumulation and production. By combining multiple datasets and using calibrated parameters from core measurements, uncertainties in the static modeling process were reduced, providing insights for better understanding of complex reservoirs.

Hydrocarbon accumulation in basins with multiple phases of extension and inversion: examples from the Western Desert (Egypt) and the western Black Sea

William Bosworth et al.

Summary: In many basins, folds associated with inverted extensional faults are important exploration targets. Factors such as crestal breaching and erosion of top seal can lead to failure to trap hydrocarbons in inversion structures. However, in rift basins with multi-phase histories, new top seals can be deposited following inversion events, potentially enhancing hydrocarbon maturation and success rates. Understanding the complex sequence of extensional and contractional events in a basin is essential for formulating successful exploration strategies.
