EVALUATION OF RESERVOIR ELEMENTS IN WEST KELANTAN DELTA

The location of the study area is in a delta which is located on the east coast and in the
north easternmost of Peninsular Malaysia. It is located in the Kelantan state which is
situated within two districts area of Kelantan; Tumpat and Kuala Krai. The general
geology of the study area is a wave-dominated delta that consists of Quaternary
sediments.
The objective of the research is to do evaluation of the reservoir elements in term
of porosity and thermal conductivity and their relationship with depth. A review of these
elements has been done by doing the soil analysis. This analysis is important for reservoir
characterization or description since the results will lead to the reservoir’s quality
determination. Three samples are gathered from different location to determined their
lithology and develop lithology map by comparing with the well log data. The porosity
and thermal conductivity profiling produced from geological model (Petromod software)
are then used for the reservoir’s quality determination.
