We must fi nd new hydrocarbon reserves that are hidden in almost inaccessible areas. Our knowledge of petroleum geology and geochemistry is the best intellectual tool that we have for the never- ending search for rich new deposits of hydrocarbons. The geology of the rocks under deep oceans and on continental shelves has become much more important as advances in technology permit drilling in these areas. Developments in petroleum geology and geochemistry, and advances in seismic and well-logging measurements, provide a better understanding of the evolution of subsurface sedimentary deposits and the migration, entrapment, and production of hydrocarbons. This book touches upon the great strides that are being made through electronic innovations in instrumental measurements of geologic and geochemical systems. The structure of the book is actually a balance of four topical sections. The fundamental aspects of petroleum geology, geochemistry, and accumulation, uation, and production of subsurface fl uids are discussed in the fi rst three sections followed by the fourth section on mathematical modeling of geologic systems. Chapters 1–3 introduce a systematic approach to understanding sedimentary rocks and their role in the evolution and containment of subsurface fl uids. This is discussed in relation to the physical conditions of hydrocarbon reserves e.g., at very high temperatures and pressures. Chapters 4–6 discuss the physical and chemical properties of subsurface waters, crude oils and natural gases. The physical and chemical properties are especially important to production engineering and mathematical simulation because they impact the relative motions of fl uids as saturation changes during production 1 wettability of rocks affects production characteristics and ultimate recovery; 2 relative permeability affects fl uid movement to the production wells; 3 density differences between immiscible fl uids affect gravity drainage from one part of the reservoir to another as the reservoir fl uids are depleted; 4 viscosity of fl uids affects the relative mobility of each fl uid; and 5 fl uid chemistry affects the absorption, ultimate recovery and monetary value of the produced hydrocarbons. Chapters 7–10 discuss the ation and accumulation of crude oils and natural gases 1 changes in the chemical composition of hydrocarbons that originate from the debris of living plants to crude oils; 2 the origins of hydrocarbons in different areas of a single reservoir; also, the conditions which determine the distribution of water, oil, and gas in the reservoir; 3 migration of subsurface fl uids until they eventually accumulate in isolated geologic traps; and 4 a discussion of the oil traps as a function of sedimentary geology. vii Chapter 11 explains the analytical and statistical approaches to modern mathematical modeling of both static and dynamic geologic systems. Modeling of static systems i.e., simulation of the structure and composition of geologic systems is done regardless of time to develop a basis for geologic exploration and hydrocarbon reserve estimation, whereas dynamic models capture any changes taking place with respect to time for use in studying production and fi eld development. This book is recommended to the geologists, geochemists, petroleum engineers, and graduate university students studying petroleum geology, engineering, and geochemistry. E.C. Donaldson Managing Editor of Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering Wynnewood, Oklahoma FOREWORDviii PREFACE The progress in the oil and gas industry is related closely to the acceleration of discovery rates, exploration, development, and production of hydrocarbon resourc- es. Exploration, development, and production of hydrocarbon resources must be based on reliable ination, which helps to predict subsurface conditions and properties of oil- and gas-bearing ations. Main oil and gas reserves are found in sedimentary basins composed of ter- rigenous siliciclastic, carbonate, and, sometimes, volcanic or volcaniclastic rocks. Preservation of high reservoir pressure and good properties of reservoir rocks and seals caprocks in these basins depends greatly on their origin and further evolution. The process of sedimentation, and the following processes of diagenesis i.e., phys- ical, chemical and biochemical processes, which occur in the sediments after sed- imentation and through lithifi cation at near-surface temperature and pressure and catagenesis or epigenesis i.e., physical and chemical processes, which occur in the sedimentary rocks at high temperatures and pressures after lithifi cation and up to metamorphism, cause alterations, which may enable one to predict oil and gas potential. Considering an interest demonstrated by petroleum geologists and reservoir en- gineers, this book discusses the major theoretical and practical problems of petro- leum geology and geochemistry as they are viewed at the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century. The treatment of the material is non-uni in the sense that the accepted scientific concepts are treated cursorily, just to maintain the completeness and continuity of the story, whereas the disputable and innovative issues are handled in more detail. The discussion is conducted from a position of the science of petroleum geology, geochemistry, and other related disciplines. For instance, in describing oil-bearing sequences, the main brunt is on depositional environmentsandsuchfeaturesasreservoirand fl uid-sealingproperties. A considerable attention is devoted to the transations within the rock– water–organic matter system of the Earth’s crust with changes in the subsurface temperature and pressure. New reservoir and accumulation types are identifi ed and their exploration/development features are defi ned. A variety of common reservoir engineering problems can be solved during fi eld development and production by the integration of geological, geochemical, and en- gineering studies. For example, such studies can identify reservoir compartment- alization, allocate commingled production, identify completion problems such as tubing leaks or poor casing cementing jobs, predict fl uid properties viscosity, den- sity prior to production tests, characterize induced fracture geometry, monitor the waterfl ood process and water encroachment, or explain the causes of produced sludge. ix Discussions in this book are based on the systems approach to the specific ge- ologic systems. Along with this approach, mathematical modeling of the static and dynamic geologic systems is described as well. The use of mathematical s and computer techniques increases the scope of problems that can be solved on the basis of integrated geological, geophysical, geochemical and engineering ination. Mathematical s using computer processing of the current ination ac- celerate the process of regional and local prediction of oil and gas potential that, in general, increases the economical and geologic effi ciency of exploration, develop- ment, and production of oil and gas.
