Core description for clastic and carbonate reservoirs
Badley Ashton's high-quality core descriptions provide detailed insights into the sedimentological characteristics and depositional evolution of clastic and carbonate reservoirs
Our hand-drafted, digitised core logs provide an accurate and detailed portrayal of the reservoir, its component rock types and architectural elements.
Clastic and carbonate core sedimentology
- Accurate analysis and argued interpretations of the core dataset to establish the sedimentary framework
- Detailed interpretative graphic core descriptions
- Lithotype characterisation
- Ichnofacies analysis
- Key surface recognition
- Depositional packages and facies association interpretation
- Digitised lithotype, package, facies and grain size data
- Sandbody/reservoir geometry, stacking patterns, vertical organisation and depositional hierarchy
- Depositional models
Integrated approach to reservoir characterisation
- Integration of all available well data to evaluate reservoir architecture, heterogeneities and reservoir quality in cored and uncored intervals
- Facies and reservoir quality predictions in the uncored intervals
- Core, openhole and BHI interpretation for refined facies interpretation and palaeocurrent/palaeoslope analysis
- Sequence and event stratigraphic correlations and facies mapping
- Reservoir architecture and barrier/baffle identification
- Rock typing and flow unit definition
- Porosity/permeability relationships within the sedimentological framework
- Conditioning geological data for reservoir models
