Analysis of structural-tectonic and petrophysical features of productive horizons of Mishovdag fold

The article analyzes the geological structure, lithofascial, tectonic, and morpho- logical features of the Mishovdag oil field, which is a productive area in terms of oil content. Morphologically, it represents a brachianticlinal fold located in the north-west and south-east directions. The Mishovdag fold is located on the Kalamaddin-Bandovan anticline zone between the Kichik Harami (in the northeast) and Galmaz (in the northwest) structures. The Mishovdag-Galmaz part of the anticlinal zone extends in the sub-southern direction. The structures included in the zone are represented on the surface mainly by Aghjagil, Absheron, and ancient Khazar sediments. Productive layer sediments come to the surface in few areas. The tectonic movements and activity of mud volcanoes (active or buried) have left characteristic traces in the geological structure of the research area. Brachianticlinal and other types of structures were formed here. Under the strong influence of tectonic movements, the layers forming them were deformed and broken into blocks by regional tectonic faults. The anticlinal structures of the zone are complicated by longitudinal and latitudinal faults. The Mishovdag fold is represented by a brachianticline, 20-25 km long and 4-6 km wide. Brachianticline has a sharply asymmet- rical structure. The southwestern limb is steep, and inclined at an angle of 25-450, while the northeastern limb is flat and characterized by an inclination angle of 7-250. As a result of the analysis of the cross-sections of deep wells drilled in the field, it was determined that Mesozoic, Paleogene-Miocene, and Pliocene-Anthropogenic sediments are developed in the section of the fold. Sediments repre- senting the cross-section are characterized by high reservoir properties. Geological-geophysical works are carried out in the field. Core materials were taken from wells. The lithological-petrophysical characteristics – carbonate, porosity, and permeability of reservoir rocks have been determined according to core samples taken from exploration wells drilled in the field. The lithological-petrophysical characteristic regularities of change were investigated depending on depth.
