LITHOFACIES MODELING OF CRETACEOUS RESERVOIR IN DOBA BASIN, SOUTHERN CHAD

The application of reservoir lithofacies static modeling to illustrate facies lateral
and vertical distribution of the reservoir has been modeled for the K-oil field in the
Doba Basin, southern Chad. The basin is a part of the West and Central African Rift
System (WCARS), and the basin sediments are non-marine
The study area is located in an anticline structure oriented in the NE - SW trend in
the southeastern part of the basin and is intersected by NW-SE normal faults. The
sediment deposition system is sequences of braided deltas formed by progradation of
a fluvial system into a standing body of water.
