Assessment of Seal Integrity and Dynamic Fault Character Using Hydrocarbon Geochemistry and PVT Analysis: Examples from the Middle East
Understanding the genesis and relationships among oil and gas accumulations is of prime importance in exploration and development programs. This will not only help better identify and delineate petroleum systems, but also aid in evaluating seals – one of the most critical elements in petroleum systems. Integrating geochemistry and pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) data of reservoir fluids offer tools for the assessment of fault and top seal integrity. Examples from fields at different levels of delineation, development and management from different Paleozoic and Mesozoic basins in the Middle East are discussed to demonstrate the role of fluid geochemistry in aiding the evaluation of top, lateral and fault seal integrity, and in providing insights into the sealing and buffering effects of reservoir heterogeneity on hydrocarbon fluid flow. Examples discussed include (1) detection of petrophysical sealing using PVT fluid composition data, (2) geochemical detection of partial sealing, (3) the development of top seal by solid reservoir bitumen immediately below a regional unconformity, (4) geochemical recognition of possible strike-slip fault seal, and (5) geochemical detection of fault-controlled reservoir compartmentalisation in a field at an appraisal stage where PVT data are limited or inconclusive.

期刊介绍:
Petroleum Geoscience is the international journal of geoenergy and applied earth science, and is co-owned by the Geological Society of London and the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers (EAGE).
Petroleum Geoscience transcends disciplinary boundaries and publishes a balanced mix of articles covering exploration, exploitation, appraisal, development and enhancement of sub-surface hydrocarbon resources and carbon repositories. The integration of disciplines in an applied context, whether for fluid production, carbon storage or related geoenergy applications, is a particular strength of the journal. Articles on enhancing exploration efficiency, lowering technological and environmental risk, and improving hydrocarbon recovery communicate the latest developments in sub-surface geoscience to a wide readership.
Petroleum Geoscience provides a multidisciplinary forum for those engaged in the science and technology of the rock-related sub-surface disciplines. The journal reaches some 8000 individual subscribers, and a further 1100 institutional subscriptions provide global access to readers including geologists, geophysicists, petroleum and reservoir engineers, petrophysicists and geochemists in both academia and industry. The journal aims to share knowledge of reservoir geoscience and to reflect the international nature of its development.
