AboutFarrukh Qayyum Expertise I can answer questions related to following disciplines mainly: geology, geophysics, general geomorphology, stratigraphy, seismic stratigraphy and sequence stratigraphy. I would like to answer Geophysical question too with keen interest specifically exploration related. I want to hear from users for their queries on exploration geophysics/geology. Especially, in the discipline of Reservoir Characterization from multi-discipline data. The questions related to basics and interpretational applications would be most welcome.
I can not answer the questions related to astronomly, ecology/environmetal sciences, mineralogy and petrology/petrophysics. Such categories are not my discipline of experience.
Experience Four years in different services with additional case studies of Pakistan, China, Saudi Arabia and Netherlands offshore.
Organizations dGB Earth Sciences, The Netherlands.
Education/Credentials Master in Philosophy with specialization in reservoir characterization by using Sequence Stratigraphy. And master in Geophysics with a case study of Punjab Platform.
Question What are reservoir characteristics and what is science of reservoir characterization?
Answer Hello Haroon Ali,
The reservoir characteristics are physical and chemical properties that define a reservoir. In order to characterize such properties directly or in directly, we put them in a large group/defintion which is known as a reservoir characterization. Remember, a reservoir at one place can have one character and in other place it can be different. That's why, the characterization term is used to identify the behavior of a reservoir through out the field within a basin. For instance, the porosity the first more terminology that is used as an additive to reservoir characterization, then thickness, permeability, areal distribution, and the way the reservoir is linked to other reserovoirs/rocks. People characterize a reservoir on the basis of a well data (directly), or well bore measurment, production history, seismic data, or other geophysical measurement. Not that, you can't characterize a reservoir idependently based upon one parameter. That will never be trustworthy.
Rest try to google this word "rservoir characterization", you will get more insights to it.
