The use of traditional research complexes is of great importance in solving such important problems as correlating well sections for the purpose of lithological assessment, determining the reservoir properties of reservoir layers that make up the section, namely, saturation, porosity, permeability and clay content, as well as identifying oil and gas-bearing and aquifer layers.
The complexity of solving such important problems depends entirely on the petrophysical properties of reservoir layers. For example, the electrical resistivities of oil-bearing and aquifer reservoirs are similar in magnitude, which leads to high clay content and significant variation in porosity throughout the field, which, as a result, makes it difficult to separate oil-bearing and aquifer reservoirs from each other. On the other hand, it is also known that an increase in the amount of cementing clays in reservoirs leads to a decrease in porosity and an increase in residual water saturation.
In this regard, in the article, based on a set of well data, the values of the petrophysical parameters of reservoir layers were determined, models were built that determine the correlation between them, and regression equations based on the statistical distribution of these parameters were established. The article also built models for the distribution of porosity, permeability, clay content and oil and gas saturation along well sections. The constructed models provide the basis for forming a definite opinion about the field and obtaining results of both a scientific and practical nature when studying the filtration and reservoir characteristics of reservoir layers, as well as when determining the relationship between petrophysical parameters.
The object of the study was the on the Kirmakinskaya (KS) and Underkirmaky (UK) formations of the productive series (PS) selected from the wells of the Gyurgyan-Deniz field.
