Geological Characterization as integral part of Petroleum reservoir management (Fajer pool of Nafoora oil field)
Keywords:
Reservoir management, Production engineering, Fajer poolAbstract
The understanding of reservoir management has improved greatly over the last few years and a methodology is slowly emerging to facilitate its routine implementation. Reservoir management used to be identified with production engineering, then became synonymous with numerical reservoir simulation. This paper discusses some issues belongs to reservoir characterization which considered as one of the most important players in understanding and verifying the under studied reservoir. Our example is Fajer pool, small reservoir located in the northwestern part of the Nafoora field that is located in in the eastern part of Libya in the Concession 51 West, owned by Arabian Gulf Oil Company.
