00:04 | Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Are conventional play type high term a platform |
|
|
00:14 | carbonate. And these are isolated reef that were originally linked to a platform |
|
|
00:23 | reef complex along this margin here and . What happened to those reefs? |
|
|
00:27 | got drowned out, right? Or level dropped first to kill them off |
|
|
00:31 | then you re flooded. But usually uh you drown them out. |
|
|
00:38 | The reefs are too deep to So what happens to those organisms? |
|
|
00:42 | want to shift back up onto the carbonate platform and find preexisting paleo |
|
|
00:49 | So as paleo highs could be subtle highs or they could be paleo topography |
|
|
00:54 | to that previous de positional cycle, another reef or something like that. |
|
|
00:59 | right. So that's the general setting this kind of play development. And |
|
|
01:04 | you're up on a carbonate platform, substance rate should not be that |
|
|
01:08 | Right. So these reefs typically can't vertically a lot. They do more |
|
|
01:14 | this. Right. So they typically a greater extent, areal extent, |
|
|
01:20 | not a lot of vertical thickness. if they get more than a few |
|
|
01:22 | ft thick, that's that's considered to pretty good typically. Alright. |
|
|
01:31 | Let me get rid of this. , this is the model. You |
|
|
01:39 | . Typically these things evolved into an complex. Right? With briefs on |
|
|
01:44 | margin. The better reef development on winter facing side. Not as good |
|
|
01:48 | reef development on the leeward side for reasons we've talked about that. This |
|
|
01:52 | a scale relationship you typically see? . And uh the beauty of this |
|
|
02:01 | type is that eventually these risk it first in their own debris. But |
|
|
02:08 | eventually they get drowned out as well they get encased in either deepwater carbonates |
|
|
02:12 | deep water or shale. So you up with excellent strata, graphic trapping |
|
|
02:17 | and good. What we call four closure where every side is completely sealed |
|
|
02:21 | . All right. And we have number of modern analog for this, |
|
|
02:26 | that we've talked about. But the schematic model is, is |
|
|
02:31 | you know, the better reef developments occur on the when we're facing side |
|
|
02:35 | . So you want to pay attention your paleo geography and no, if |
|
|
02:38 | in a stronger easterly paleo, trade system or gent more general. But |
|
|
02:45 | , you expect better reef on this . You expect the lagoon uh dotted |
|
|
02:50 | small scale patris. The sediment in lagoon is gonna be dependent on the |
|
|
02:55 | of the trade winds and how deep water is. So if it's deeper |
|
|
02:59 | so weaker wind system, it's going be more MMA, critic. If |
|
|
03:03 | shallow and energetic wind is probably going be grain stone. And then what |
|
|
03:08 | you get off the leeward sides? talked about the shedding right shot in |
|
|
03:11 | back relationship, you don't expect to good reef margin developed on this |
|
|
03:16 | right here. Okay. And we about some of these modern analog, |
|
|
03:20 | showed you the example from beliefs comparable to what we're going to talk about |
|
|
03:25 | the rock record in terms of areal . Not the vertical sickness yet, |
|
|
03:32 | but you see the central lagoons the reach dominated margins. And then |
|
|
03:36 | took you to the great barrier reef I showed you the same kind of |
|
|
03:40 | , but in higher energy. And did we do? We stripped off |
|
|
03:43 | the Mc. Right, right. the lagoons were all sandy carbonate |
|
|
03:47 | So that's something you want to be about in the rock record. So |
|
|
03:52 | most, excuse me, the most example of this play type is uh |
|
|
04:02 | reservoir called judy Creek. And judy sits right in the middle of Alberta |
|
|
04:10 | that sits on a broad carbonate Called the swan hills, platform and |
|
|
04:16 | . There was platform margin reef development this side over here. Which makes |
|
|
04:20 | . Right, that's the western side respect to the prevailing winds. So |
|
|
04:24 | actually to producing oil fields over here called house mountain. And one is |
|
|
04:28 | Deer Mountain. And then what They got drowned out. You got |
|
|
04:32 | relative rise to see a little fast to drown out the reefs. |
|
|
04:36 | And so what what did you What do those organisms do? |
|
|
04:40 | they moved back and they found paleo up in the platform. So every |
|
|
04:44 | blob you see here is a isolated , mound carbonate with reef margins and |
|
|
04:51 | one of these is productive. And judy creek is the most famous |
|
|
04:56 | of the detail that went into the of that reservoir. Alright. And |
|
|
05:01 | not going to talk about it now this is my case study next |
|
|
05:05 | So I will take you through the to show you how they built the |
|
|
05:08 | model. Okay, this is winning again and I'm gonna give you some |
|
|
05:13 | sections. I mean I posted the sections on blackboard. I may actually |
|
|
05:18 | you some physical paper cross sections if want them. And we can look |
|
|
05:23 | those and talk about them. But you can see why this works so |
|
|
05:27 | . Right. We back step from margin Up onto a subtle Paleo topographic |
|
|
05:33 | . These risks of all the thick of a couple 100 ft but then |
|
|
05:38 | get encased in the deepwater waterways This is lime mud stone that provides |
|
|
05:43 | effective top seal. All right, we'll talk about that in more |
|
|
05:49 | What I like to do now is you some examples from the cretaceous |
|
|
05:54 | Show you how we better explain the of these play types because there are |
|
|
05:59 | never made any sense based on the bahama models that we talked about. |
|
|
06:05 | uh I also want to show you how we use the geology to prove |
|
|
06:09 | trade wind influences. Okay. The ones were an important part of the |
|
|
06:14 | and distribution of these play types. , I'm going to show you two |
|
|
06:19 | from the northern gulf rim here. uh the first one is going to |
|
|
06:24 | in the Sligo lower most cretaceous. the second one is going to be |
|
|
06:29 | a little bit younger. And what's the James limestone. So it's a |
|
|
06:34 | above the Sligo. Alright, separated shale. And look look at our |
|
|
06:40 | setting here. This is a map lower cretaceous paleo geography. There's a |
|
|
06:44 | gulf basin, right there was Golden we just talked about over here. |
|
|
06:49 | reef trend would be up here. you can see where we're at. |
|
|
06:53 | , we're about 15° north of the . That puts us in the heart |
|
|
06:57 | of the strong easterly trade wind All right. And so we're going |
|
|
07:01 | first talk about the Sligo formation, is the oldest of the cretaceous sequences |
|
|
07:07 | in the northern gulf rim. And that's going to be a field called |
|
|
07:12 | Lakefield. And then I'm going to you to the James limestone, which |
|
|
07:17 | part of the Pearsall formation and these are separated from the Sligo by a |
|
|
07:23 | event called the Pine Island shale. , so you saw this map yesterday |
|
|
07:30 | I showed you Vivian field, remember little field up here that sat behind |
|
|
07:34 | Catto pied island structure. All well Black Lakefield is a platform mound |
|
|
07:42 | and look how far back it is the open ocean again. Again, |
|
|
07:46 | you look at the scale here, about 100 km in from the open |
|
|
07:51 | . And so you're gonna see based the composition of this reservoir that it |
|
|
07:57 | be there. Okay, If it driven by northern Bahamian oceanic influences, |
|
|
08:02 | ? Because oceanic influences, oceanic swells tidal currents are confined to the platform |
|
|
08:09 | and they dissipate back here. But Black Lake Fields sitting out here in |
|
|
08:13 | middle of a deeper drowned carbonate All right. So, it's low |
|
|
08:19 | carbonate back here. Except right Right. And Black Lakefield is there |
|
|
08:24 | it takes advantage of paleo topography related salt tectonics. All right. |
|
|
08:29 | here's uh, here's another map There's the main reef trend. These |
|
|
08:34 | Sturm it operated. And coral reefs productive because they're limestone and they're buried |
|
|
08:41 | , ft of burial. So, porosity preservation. And then here's Black |
|
|
08:46 | Field. Right. This little football thing and pink is sitting on a |
|
|
08:51 | structure. Right. And so this is the only one that they |
|
|
08:56 | back here in this setting. All . No, This is an old |
|
|
09:02 | , published back in 1971, Leo was a professor at Louisiana tech and |
|
|
09:07 | outside of uh, outside Shreveport. I never met Dr Herman. |
|
|
09:14 | I don't know the rationale for for this map, but I can sort |
|
|
09:20 | understand what he was trying to do . He was trying to explain how |
|
|
09:23 | get this high energy reef that far and up on the platform. And |
|
|
09:27 | he just had the reef try and a left hand turn, you |
|
|
09:31 | sort of like creating a payment and bring it back out like this. |
|
|
09:34 | right. But I've talked to people discovered Black Lakefield. They said there's |
|
|
09:38 | no no evidence for what he drew . All right. Nobody knows why |
|
|
09:44 | drew it like you drew it But so what's the key observation for |
|
|
09:51 | Lakefield? Black Lake Field, which a pretty good little field here. |
|
|
09:55 | can see the numbers here. All . Uh, over 160 million barrels |
|
|
10:01 | oil and 800 BCF of gas. Lakefield is mostly associated with a rudest |
|
|
10:07 | complex. Okay. And so you the you see the caipirinhas remember cabanas |
|
|
10:14 | our Edwards. Right, There's a core and then here's all this reef |
|
|
10:20 | . Right? These are the skeletal of rudest. These are basically grain |
|
|
10:24 | and Pakistan's, but then liquid pops in the middle of that debris. |
|
|
10:30 | yellow is, oh, it's the and reefs together. Right? There's |
|
|
10:36 | red flag. That tells you this not the normal northern Bahamas model. |
|
|
10:41 | ? It can't be because you're too inboard to make who is by tidal |
|
|
10:47 | . And I think I've said this currents don't make good reefs. |
|
|
10:51 | you need add wave agitation. Whether oceanic swells or persistent when wave agitation |
|
|
10:57 | make a good reef. Alright, , I mean, you see when |
|
|
11:01 | was published back in the early this made absolutely no sense to |
|
|
11:05 | why you would get this complex this inboard and have us and reefs mixed |
|
|
11:10 | . Okay. And then you can about the same time, people were |
|
|
11:14 | maps like this for Black Lake, you can see where was the reef |
|
|
11:19 | ? It was on this side, southeast side of the structure of the |
|
|
11:23 | structure. And then what did you back here preferential shedding up to the |
|
|
11:29 | . Right. Again. You it never made any sense based on |
|
|
11:33 | northern Bahamas. But now, if think about are setting, it makes |
|
|
11:36 | sense if the trade winds are Right, Right. We're 15° north |
|
|
11:41 | the equator. Strong trade winds out the east or southeast. That would |
|
|
11:45 | why the reef is better developed on side and not very well developed on |
|
|
11:49 | side. And you can see why would be preferential shutting. Right. |
|
|
11:52 | was the keiko's story basically. I , didn't I show you that? |
|
|
11:58 | showed you, I showed you first all how the trade winds could allow |
|
|
12:03 | To develop these isolated reef complexes up 40 km or more in from the |
|
|
12:08 | ocean by delivering good oceanic water up the inner part of the platform. |
|
|
12:14 | the screen area here was dominated by of these little pat trees and the |
|
|
12:19 | were doing what they were coalescing into scale structures. So you can see |
|
|
12:24 | scale here. I mean that that's half a kilometer across for scale and |
|
|
12:29 | what maybe three or 4000 years of . Give it more time. You |
|
|
12:34 | see how you can involve a bigger . And then what was the other |
|
|
12:37 | that I made the other day? that the debris Around some of these |
|
|
12:42 | trees, even in 25 or 30 of water is being converted to its |
|
|
12:47 | you've got us and reefs together. . And that's the trade wind |
|
|
12:51 | All right. And then I showed what happens to debris that gets shed |
|
|
12:57 | reefs. All right. As soon the storm breaks up a reef and |
|
|
13:02 | sand back this way, Well then trade winds kick in and they start |
|
|
13:06 | that dualistic send. Right? So and who is together? So this |
|
|
13:11 | to me this is the geological The trade winds were the principal |
|
|
13:15 | right? They're not going to break the reef. Right. That's to |
|
|
13:18 | be the big storms to break up reef. But once you break it |
|
|
13:22 | , then you have the potential to that sand around. You have the |
|
|
13:26 | converts some of that skeletal santa eulalia . Right. And to me that's |
|
|
13:31 | key observation. All right. And related to this is the second example |
|
|
13:38 | , which is the James limestone, is part of the pure cell formation |
|
|
13:43 | east texas. The field is called Field. And look where fairway field |
|
|
13:49 | relative to the basin margin. There's basin margin of the ancestral gulf of |
|
|
13:54 | . There's a scale that's about 100 in from the open ocean. And |
|
|
14:01 | field is much like Black Lakefield. sits on a turtle structure related to |
|
|
14:05 | tectonics. Right? So that's the topography. All right. And is |
|
|
14:10 | basically by a drowned deeper. The carbonate platform. Right. And fairway |
|
|
14:20 | is a HL reef complex with the lagoon. All right. So you're |
|
|
14:27 | see there's production around the periphery. also production from some of the |
|
|
14:31 | sands, but then there's this impressive sheet that goes back like this. |
|
|
14:37 | mean, look at the scale that's about 30, 30 miles in |
|
|
14:40 | . All right. And some of is productive. Right there. A |
|
|
14:43 | of little wells have been drilled in stuff and then look what happens when |
|
|
14:47 | come up to the paleo shoreline. avenue of sand body developed parallel to |
|
|
14:52 | paleo shoreline Yet. How is this back in 1985. All right. |
|
|
14:59 | you like our was a geologist and for for Arco out of Dallas. |
|
|
15:04 | and what did he call this scholes title bars. Right. because back |
|
|
15:09 | 1985, that was the only way knew to make you it's nobody knew |
|
|
15:13 | the trade. We're just starting to in Cape Coast. Right. We're |
|
|
15:16 | starting. We didn't really have a feel yet for the role of trade |
|
|
15:21 | on sand body geometry. All Mm. But this makes no |
|
|
15:26 | Right. Why would you get Look at the scale, how far |
|
|
15:30 | you are? I mean, the is already 100 miles in from the |
|
|
15:33 | ocean. And then that's even another miles or more back than that. |
|
|
15:38 | ? So none of this made sense the northern Bahamas model. Right? |
|
|
15:43 | won't get, you won't get It's along a shoreline driven by tidal |
|
|
15:48 | unless you had an embodiment cut all way back to the shoreline. |
|
|
15:52 | And there's no evidence for that. ? So, what makes more sense |
|
|
15:57 | is the trade wind effects again? . The Southeast trade winds are going |
|
|
16:01 | do what they're going to allow the to thrive back here. And then |
|
|
16:05 | storms break up the material, the winds, just like I showed you |
|
|
16:09 | keiko's are gonna push the stuff from wind to down wind. And then |
|
|
16:14 | happens when we have paleo topography, that gets hit by those trade |
|
|
16:19 | Didn't I show you how you Do it stands along the shoreline parallel |
|
|
16:24 | that shoreline and then of course you'd them to pro grade into the |
|
|
16:27 | Okay, so that's to me it's orientation of the sand bodies. It |
|
|
16:32 | sort of the clincher for the trade influence. All right. And you |
|
|
16:37 | , most of the production, as expect a curse from the reef derived |
|
|
16:40 | stones and red. There is some is some production from the reef core |
|
|
16:46 | . You can see the numbers I mean, this is moderately deeply |
|
|
16:52 | proxy. Only 11% average ferocity. terms are not incredibly high. There's |
|
|
16:58 | a fracture assistant production because you don't the gusher rates and the rapid |
|
|
17:03 | But one of the interesting things about lot of these carbonate reservoirs is the |
|
|
17:07 | recovery efficiency, which is what a of companies are concerned with, |
|
|
17:12 | Because that's a long term economics Is , pretty high. Right? Anything |
|
|
17:16 | 50% is considered to be pretty All right. So, a lot |
|
|
17:20 | these carbonate reservoirs are well over All right. So, the main |
|
|
17:27 | zones as you see from the ferocity here are the lower a zone and |
|
|
17:35 | a zone right here and then the zone here. All right. These |
|
|
17:40 | some of the finer grain stones that shut off of the reef. And |
|
|
17:46 | you can see this is a publication a guy named bob Webster who's out |
|
|
17:50 | Dallas and uh independently look how he subtract these sands within that reef |
|
|
18:00 | They take on the same orientation from to northwest as that taylor slope behind |
|
|
18:06 | reef. Right? So to this is the this is based on |
|
|
18:10 | I showed you for keiko's. This the indication that prevailing winds were mostly |
|
|
18:14 | of the southeast quadrant. Right. what did I show you on |
|
|
18:19 | I showed you the subtitle sand bodies ambergris or mid platform show line up |
|
|
18:25 | to the prevailing wind. And then you're up dip, an update here |
|
|
18:29 | be west coast. Your sands are to the shoreline but perpendicular to the |
|
|
18:36 | wind. Okay, everybody understand what saying. So this is just drawing |
|
|
18:42 | analogy from Cocos and showing how it back to the rock record. |
|
|
18:48 | shoot right here. Tom Bullough effect behind these two islands here. |
|
|
18:53 | The wind waves come around. They around and make you it's back |
|
|
19:00 | So, this island, this is of the whole estate islands. Just |
|
|
19:03 | mean, this is part of the the same show. There's the older |
|
|
19:06 | island right there. That was the that creates the tom below effect, |
|
|
19:11 | wraps around both sides. Okay, hope you appreciate what I'm saying |
|
|
19:18 | Is that the trade winds actually create opportunity for expiration then if you have |
|
|
19:24 | focus everything along the platform margin. ? That's the northern Bahamas model keiko's |
|
|
19:30 | opportunity, not just to the but well up onto the platform. |
|
|
19:34 | patch reefs like I showed you back Or these widespread. You would sand |
|
|
19:38 | sheets back here up in the platform 2025 ft of water. That's why |
|
|
19:44 | so important to pay attention to the of the, of the paleo trade |
|
|
19:50 | . All right. And then one example here, just to show you |
|
|
19:53 | sometimes local tectonics can change the story respect to the thickness of these |
|
|
20:00 | Because, you know, most of reefs are what people refer to as |
|
|
20:04 | a a pancake morphology on seismic. ? Great aerial extent. Not a |
|
|
20:09 | of vertical sickness. Well, the to that would be areas like Southeast |
|
|
20:14 | . There's Sumatra. Again, you're out of a deeper water basin up |
|
|
20:18 | a carbonate platform. That's been drowned . Every one of these little features |
|
|
20:23 | is a isolated reef complex of this type. Okay. And the red |
|
|
20:29 | gas productive, the greener or oil . And instead of being pancakes, |
|
|
20:35 | of these reef conflicts is have thicknesses 2000 ft. Because of the local |
|
|
20:42 | , it's a much greater subsiding Right? The substance rates are much |
|
|
20:49 | . So that allows you to do to build greater vertical thickness. |
|
|
20:52 | And so look at the seismic expression very well pronounced. And again, |
|
|
20:58 | lot of these features that have this of seismic expression probably are not one |
|
|
21:04 | . There's probably a couple of reefs have coalesced together. Okay, But |
|
|
21:08 | point is, the point I'm trying make is you get into a unique |
|
|
21:12 | setting. You could evolve greater vertical is right. These are these are |
|
|
21:16 | to look like what we're going to the pinnacle reef plays this afternoon, |
|
|
21:22 | they're not they're not in the deepwater . Okay. They're up on a |
|
|
21:25 | water carbonate platform. Everybody understand what saying. So that's why we're not |
|
|
21:29 | to call them the downslope pinnacle All right. So, so, |
|
|
21:40 | . Okay. All right. So the summary. Obviously. Typically their |
|
|
21:47 | scale buildups localized on drowned carbonate They usually have greater errol extent than |
|
|
21:53 | relief. But there can be Like you just saw same point about |
|
|
21:58 | and mineralogy of the organism. Same about reservoir quality. Historically, the |
|
|
22:03 | reservoirs occur along the margins. Especially on the windward sides of these |
|
|
22:09 | . We have good reef development potential strong graphic trapping as you saw is |
|
|
22:14 | good. The ceiling faces are usually later transgressive deepwater carbonaceous shales that provides |
|
|
22:20 | effective top seal and side seals. . Good four way closure. Get |
|
|
22:25 | graphic trapping and source rocks. Um there's still the offshore, based on |
|
|
22:31 | lime stones or shells. I know one example in Western Canada where they |
|
|
22:37 | some local squirting out of one of lagoon's one of the deeper lagoons. |
|
|
22:42 | ? It was anoxic. But these are not very big. So |
|
|
22:45 | not big kitchens. You're not going generate lot of hydrocarbon out of |
|
|
22:50 | All right. Yeah. And then the list of examples. Okay. |
|
|
22:57 | . Any any questions about that play ? Let me change slides here. |
|
|
23:10 | , let me pause the recording for minute. Yeah. So, course |
|
|
23:38 | off. Smart, true Singapore That's one. Sorry. Yeah. |
|
|
23:57 | , I'd have to go back and at a paleo geographic map. I |
|
|
24:01 | don't recall. All right. And may be close to being in that |
|
|
24:06 | around the equator too. So Yes. Yeah. Okay. Are |
|
|
24:43 | lecture. So this would be Still lecture 17, but this is |
|
|
24:49 | uh platform interior and ramp related, stone and Pakistan plays. We've got |
|
|
24:54 | 15 minutes before lunch. So let's started into this and we'll pick it |
|
|
24:58 | on the other side. Um, the model here, the cartoon that |
|
|
25:04 | put together here, you have to differently depending on whether you apply it |
|
|
25:09 | a platform or whether you apply it ramp. Okay, So if you're |
|
|
25:14 | more of a ramp model then, would your ramp crest be? It |
|
|
25:18 | be not too far out in front that lagoon. Right? Like I |
|
|
25:22 | you for abu Dhabi last weekend. right. And so this would be |
|
|
25:28 | ramp crest. This would be the behind the ramp crest. Right. |
|
|
25:32 | protected, shallow subtitle. Usually my carbonate and then it could feed a |
|
|
25:37 | fact complex back here. That may may not have evaporates. Okay, |
|
|
25:41 | that's how you would view it if tied to ramp. All right. |
|
|
25:44 | , if if you look at this related to a platform margin, |
|
|
25:48 | Like the Bahamas, then where would platform margin be? Would probably be |
|
|
25:53 | out to the right. Alright. further out to the right, |
|
|
25:57 | 50 km 100 km something of that . And that's where the high energy |
|
|
26:03 | . Right. And then once you away from that margin, the rest |
|
|
26:05 | the platform interior. This part of diagram here is low energy on a |
|
|
26:11 | basis. Right? And then but storms come through and feed the tidal |
|
|
26:15 | back here. All right. So have to sort of view this differently |
|
|
26:18 | on where you're at. And then else do you get the critic carbonates |
|
|
26:24 | the ramp model? You don't just them at the ramp crest. |
|
|
26:28 | But you get them when you when gradually increase water depth out in front |
|
|
26:32 | you get to the deep water So the front of that ramp crest |
|
|
26:36 | also a site where you can accumulate . Right now you see the problem |
|
|
26:41 | Mick, right, is what the potential is not very good. |
|
|
26:45 | So you have to do something that have to do something die genetically. |
|
|
26:50 | . And that's why historically, you , we talked about these modern environments |
|
|
26:55 | the shallow subtitle and title flat Historically, we never view these as |
|
|
27:01 | great reservoir potential. We look at title flatter we look at a platform |
|
|
27:07 | subtitle Mick, right? Is being top seal, right? Potentially two |
|
|
27:12 | offshore reservoir if you have pro gradation time. All right. So in |
|
|
27:17 | words, these kinds of environments end producing sediment that looks like this basically |
|
|
27:23 | . Right? The critic colloidal, skeletal political democratic, wacky stone |
|
|
27:31 | Sometimes Pakistan fabric. Okay, no . Right. Good sealing faces. |
|
|
27:37 | how we've always viewed this. the question is, well, how |
|
|
27:41 | what what controls the reservoir potential for like this? Well, you have |
|
|
27:46 | do something favorably die genetically. And , most people assume you've got to |
|
|
27:51 | this sentiment and dramatize it early before gets deeply buried before it loses all |
|
|
27:56 | its reservoir quality. Right? Because got to get the fluids in to |
|
|
28:01 | . And so most of the reservoirs with this platform interior setting are of |
|
|
28:08 | style here, where you see the fabric, right? With the associated |
|
|
28:15 | inter crystalline or could be moldy core porosity, whatever it is. |
|
|
28:20 | And then of course, you get fracturing on top of that enhance the |
|
|
28:24 | . So, so most of the studies that are in the literature for |
|
|
28:30 | deposition all setting are related to some of favorable and early dehumanization. |
|
|
28:42 | so let's get right into some of case studies and we'll start first with |
|
|
28:46 | salary in and Williston basin. And , this is a platform interior setting |
|
|
28:56 | this is an old shell shell field was discovered back in the 50s. |
|
|
29:00 | can see it didn't produce a whole , which is again not a typical |
|
|
29:05 | a lot of these kinds of, interior. Either ramp, interior or |
|
|
29:10 | material. Democratic settings. All So that's the bad news. All |
|
|
29:15 | . The good news is what do typically do here because you're in a |
|
|
29:19 | subtitle or title flat setting, Minor and sea level do what they produce |
|
|
29:25 | stacked cycles. Right. And if can dramatized parts of each of those |
|
|
29:33 | and create reservoir quality, you end with multiple stacked reservoir units. That's |
|
|
29:38 | good news. Okay. And so what's happened for cabin creek. |
|
|
29:42 | The green would represent the dramatized intervals reservoir equality. The areas that are |
|
|
29:50 | green represent either type. Uh, critic red bed fabrics or evaporates right |
|
|
29:57 | provide the top seal. And of everybody assumed that the decolonization was related |
|
|
30:04 | re flexing from those evaporates. All . So the good news is multiple |
|
|
30:10 | reservoir units. The bad news is relatively thin. Right? And what's |
|
|
30:16 | other risk? How extensive a really . Well, that's going to be |
|
|
30:22 | on what It's going to depend on things. First of all the |
|
|
30:26 | How big was the backstop to put title flat up against And then how |
|
|
30:30 | did that title? Flat pro grade each cycle of sedimentation. Okay. |
|
|
30:37 | mean you saw that they can program quickly write a meter per year like |
|
|
30:41 | Dhabi. So you know, there's there to expand that reservoir. But |
|
|
30:47 | small reserves are small, cumulative production suggests that they probably weren't that |
|
|
30:52 | Right. Anyway, that's the Okay. Multiple stack reservoir intervals. |
|
|
30:58 | risk is again, the thickness and the extent of the the ferocity. |
|
|
31:07 | then what would be the last risk this play type? Where's your source |
|
|
31:14 | ? Right. Here's the platform the basins out here. You're back |
|
|
31:19 | , way back in the energy part that platform. The kitchen is out |
|
|
31:24 | . So you see there might be long distance migration pathway issue. So |
|
|
31:29 | something you have to factor in in risk analysis. Okay. Right. |
|
|
31:54 | , what? That's a good Um, I don't, I don't |
|
|
31:57 | the details of this field. Of , all of this is drilled with |
|
|
32:02 | wells. And I I think you have to assume that, I don't |
|
|
32:09 | . I mean you'd have to, have to maybe go back and see |
|
|
32:12 | there's some bypassed oil that could be with horizontal drilling. I'm just |
|
|
32:18 | I've not seen anybody do that. know, come back to these old |
|
|
32:21 | like this and and come back with drilling. So, yeah, |
|
|
32:38 | Right. I I just can't answer question right now. So, |
|
|
32:50 | but it's a good point. All . And then another example here is |
|
|
32:55 | little and I feel this is Mississippian instead of uh, salary in it's |
|
|
33:00 | same deposition all setting here. You've these stacks cycles. Again, they |
|
|
33:05 | from subtitle to super title flats with , right? You see the ferocity |
|
|
33:11 | , mostly secondary process. You'd expect see the reserves a little bit |
|
|
33:16 | Um, and the hips are a bit better. A little knife field |
|
|
33:21 | on a big anti client structure called neatness and anne klein, but environmentally |
|
|
33:27 | still in the platform interior setting. right. And You can see the |
|
|
33:33 | model here that was published back in 80s. Ah, you can see |
|
|
33:38 | , the zones here basically reflect the of cyclists who have been talking |
|
|
33:43 | And then you can see the interpreted here. And, and I put |
|
|
33:48 | in here. The this model is with the ramp model because it is |
|
|
33:54 | and the ramp model, the ramp would be right here creating protection for |
|
|
34:00 | lagoon behind it. Right? But they put another margin out here, |
|
|
34:05 | makes no sense with respect to ramp . Now, you could have a |
|
|
34:08 | model, right? You could have situation where it ramps like this and |
|
|
34:13 | it deepens dramatically. And so maybe what they're trying to imply, but |
|
|
34:18 | wasn't clear in the in the in discussion what they were talking about. |
|
|
34:23 | right. But this is not strictly , just the ramp model. They |
|
|
34:28 | be when you have topography here. have topography out here. All |
|
|
34:34 | But the rock looks like this. can see the darker colors reflection of |
|
|
34:38 | the in the lack of stratification. , telling you this is borrowed my |
|
|
34:43 | sediment to begin with. These are skeletal political Pakistan's and Dulles Pakistan's and |
|
|
34:49 | Pakistan's with uh pretty good ferocity and moderate permeability. Alright, yeah. |
|
|
34:57 | example in the Permian just coming up strata graphic section here. A little |
|
|
35:02 | . You can see this is related deposition again on the central basin platform |
|
|
35:07 | we've been talking about. All Uh, there's a channel that we |
|
|
35:13 | about that separates the north west shelf the central basin platform. And there |
|
|
35:18 | a number of producing fields in here have uh, have a ramp related |
|
|
35:25 | with culminating in tidal flats. All . Not all the tidal flats produce |
|
|
35:30 | some of the porosity gets plugged with hydrate, but here's an example where |
|
|
35:34 | was production from the ramp interior from part of the profile, right? |
|
|
35:41 | ramp. This is basically the ramp right here and that's a restricted lagoon |
|
|
35:47 | the title flat back here. this is the stuff that gets stolen |
|
|
35:52 | . And you can see again the probation and the secondary porosity. Sometimes |
|
|
35:57 | finer inter christian ferocity. Sometimes it's for the reasons we talked about |
|
|
36:02 | where the matrix is to limit Then you leach out the larger skeletal |
|
|
36:07 | . Okay, so that's a that's Robertson and then again, you see |
|
|
36:15 | repetitive stacking issue. Right? the slashed pattern here is title |
|
|
36:21 | So there's title flat. So that's start of a new cycle. Subtitle |
|
|
36:25 | title flat. Subtitle the titles that over and over again. All |
|
|
36:30 | And You can, you can sort see the scale here. That's 30 |
|
|
36:36 | , right? So, these cycles actually a little bit thicker than you |
|
|
36:40 | expect for for platform interior setting, , uh, but the key point |
|
|
36:45 | that they're repetitive and so that's what expect to develop on a ramp |
|
|
36:50 | uh, profile. All right. right. Um, thank you. |
|
|
37:03 | , Why don't we break it Okay. And we'll come back. |
|
|
37:10 | have up to an hour for So, we'll see you back at |
|
|
37:13 | o'clock and let me pause the Okay. Okay, I'll see you |
|
