HETEROGENEITY, CONNECTIVITY AND GEOLOGICAL MODELING OF TERTIARY CARBONATE RESERVOIR IN BAI HASSAN OIL FIELD, NORTHERN IRAQ

Bai Hassan is an elongated, asymmetrical doubly plunging anticline carbonate oil field
located near Kirkuk in Northern Iraq. Due to production wells exhibiting great
variations, there is a need to quantify heterogeneity in its petrophysical characteristics.
The field comprises of two domes separated by an axis-perpendicular, extensional fault
reactivated during the Miocene compression Since the fault's throw greater than the
Tertiary carbonate reservoir thickness, it should behave as a seal compartmentalizing
the reservoir into two domes.
