Abstract
Our aim is to understand the subsurface system and the characteristics of the Upper Bahariya reservoir within the North Qarun oil field, spanning from well to multi-well and field scales. The current study focuses on integrating a wide spectrum of datasets to achieve a comprehensive and coherent characterization of the Upper Bahariya Formation. This endeavor is essential for formulating an effective field development plan (FDP) and enhancing oil recovery efforts. The study entails the integration and interpretation of well-logging analyses and 3-D seismic data from four wells strategically distributed across the North Qarun oil field. A detailed structural interpretation is conducted to determine the structural geometry of the horizons. Petrophysical analyses are performed on the Upper Bahariya reservoir, with petrophysical properties mapped to illustrate lateral variations in the study area. These variations are crucial for predicting reservoir geometry and devising suitable development plans for new wells.
