An integrated description of the stratigraphy and depositional environment of the “Main Pay” member of the Zubair Formation, Rumaila, Iraq
Boris Kostic
Introduction • Rumaila location and Redevelopment Plan objectives • Early Cretaceous stratigraphic, palaeogeographic and palaeoclimatic context
Database and workflow • Core and image log coverage and interpretation workflow • Hierarchical integrated sedimentological and palynological description: depositional processes, genetic elements and delta advance-retreat cycles • Use of image logs in interpreting away from cored wells and developing the depositional model
Business implications and conclusions • A depositional model for the “Main Pay” of Rumaila • Identifying bypassed oil through integrated subsurface description
