Reservoir Characterization by Investigating the Reservoir Fluid Properties and their Effect on Seismic Response of Fenchuganj Gas Field, Bangladesh

SM Ariful Islam, Md. Shofiqul Islam, Mohammad Moinul Hossain

Fenchuganj Gas Field is located in the Surma Basin of Bangladesh and characterized by water-drive gas field. In the reservoir condition, water saturation increases as gas production rise. The fluid properties of the four individual gas zones of this reservoir at the present condition and at the gas depleted condition should be addressed with proper prediction. In this paper, we characterize the total reservoir with special emphasis on Upper Gas Zone and New Gas Zone I which are compared with other two gas zones (New Gas Zone III and New Gas Zone II) representing some modeling results (has done before by these authors) which evidences that the pore fluids have a significant effect on the acoustic impedance and the Poisson’s ratio of the reservoir rock which is directly correlated with seismic amplitudes at constant pressure with Batzle-Wang model and Gassman-Boit models. These models with varying pressure and water saturation conditions show the reasonable predicted fluid modulus against pressure for all four gas sands. The reservoir modeling from irreducible water saturation condition (90% gas saturation) to residual gas condition (10% gas saturation) provides a way to estimate values at reservoir conditions from logging conditions. Fluid bulk density increases when water saturation increases with constant pressure and stay around constant when water saturation increases with pressure drop. But overall it increases through the production path that we assumed. Amplitude versus Offset (AVO) analysis is also compared with other study models which show that seismic reflection of p-wave changes due to change of pressure and water saturation of the reservoir rock layers. This study is also showing that all four gas zones of the Fenchuganj are under gas sand category 3. We propose the modeling of fluid property in determining the convenience of time lapse seismic, predicting AVO and amplitude response, and forecasting in the study field and making production and reservoir engineering decisions.
