Abstract:
The purpose of study is to find the hydrocarbon potential of Missa Keswal-3, Upper Indus Basin, Pakistan. Missa Keswal Oil Field is situated at a distance of around 60 kilometers in the south-east of Islamabad. The coordinates of study well are 33° 12’ 0” North, 73° 22’ 0’’ East. In Missa Keswal-3 drilling has been done from Chinji Formation of Miocene age up to Khewra Sandstone of Early Cambrian age. Carbonates of Eocene age are acting as a reservoirs. One zone has been marked in Chorgali Formation and two zones have been marked in Sakesar Limestone. The Chorgali Formation contains, 35.64% volume of shale, 6.82% average porosity and 64.55% hydrocarbons saturation. The zone one of Sakesar Limestone contains, 10.82% volume of shale, 1.99% average porosity and 77.43% hydrocarbon saturation. The zone two of Sakesar Limestone contains, 14.21% volume of shale, 0.99% average porosity and 84.67% hydrocarbon saturation.
