3-D Seismic Reservoir Characterization and Delineation in Carbonate Reservoir
Abstract
West Betara (WB) Field is located in South Sumatra Basin, Indonesia, tested hydrocarbon (Gas) from carbonate reservoirs of the Baturaja Formations. This is an interesting challenge to describe the lateral distribution and its property within carbonate reservoir at minimum data information. The objectives of this study are to delineate carbonate reservoir distribution including the property laterally by using seismic reservoir characterization methods. The availability of 3D seismic data, DST's data, conventional well
data as wireline and mudlog data is very helpful in answering the challenge. By optimizing
well
data information, the sensitivity

can be generated from wireline
log
data to determine gas zone and appropriate seismic reservoir characterization method. 3D Seismic data provides a helpful inter-
well
information for determining and visualizing the present day the reservoir structure and help us to generate seismic inversion model and multi-attribute to predict reservoir boundary and its property distribution laterally. The sensitivity

shows good separation for gas zone in carbonate reservoir. The results help us to predict reservoir boundary and its property distribution laterally by seismic inversion and multi-attribute method in our 3D seismic data. The Gamma-ray (low value) and AI (high value) maps are showing consistency of carbonate reservoir delineation. In line with Gamma-ray and AI maps, the porosity map of the carbonate reservoir shows gas zone (high value) with certain pattern and it is consistent with tested
well
data. The result of the study has been successfully delineating carbonate reservoir distribution including the property laterally within WB Field.
