Abstract:
Petroleum is vital to almost all industries, and is of importance to the
maintenance of industrialized civilization itself, and thus is a critical concern
for many nations. Due to its importance this field has developed special
interests of the scientists and various hydrocarbon agencies and a number of
new geological and geophysical techniques have been developed to explore
and exploit the hydrocarbon buried in subsurface geological formations.
Petrophysics and well logging is one of thestrong tools which are used to
evaluate the formation characteristic features having potential for hydrocarbon
development.
A successful petrophysical analysis of Ratana well#3 is carried out
interpreting the given logs. Different parameters calculated are shale volume,
saturation of water and hydrocarbon and porosity was determined using
different logs. These were plotted onto MS-Excel understand sub surface
characteristics and presence of fluids.
