The lithologic and petrographic studies of the Mishrif and Kifil formations in Amara oil field in wells AM11,AM9, AM5 was revealed that the Mishrif formation consists of limestone and dolomitic limestone. While the Kifil formation is consist of the anhydrite and mud-dominated limestone.
The skeletal grains of Mishrif formation includes variety of benthos foraminifera, bivalves (Rudist) ,corals , stromatolite, algae, ostracods, gastropods, echinoderms. Non-skeletal grains are rare and authegenic minerals of pyrite and iron oxide are present. The rocks of the formation are affected by diagenesis such as dolomitization ,dissolution and recrystallization. The Kifil formation rocks do not have any skeletal grains and affected by recrystallization only .
The microfacies analysis of Mishrif formation reveals that the formation consists of: mudstone, wackestone, packstone, grainstone and boundstone deposed in the fore environments extend from for reef, back reef to: open marine, reef, shoals platform margin, restricted environment. The Kifil formation divided into tow lithological facies these are limestone and evaporite and we recognized mudstone microfacies only deposited in restricted environment and represents the Mishrif reservoir cap rocks .
The research illustrated that the upper contact of Mishrif formation is gradational and conformable with Kifl formation with evidence from a gradual changes from limestone to anhydrite. In this study was considered the evaporites and limestone to Kifil formation. The Kifil formation is presence by thickness (7m) in the Amara Oilfield .

Annotation:
Mishrif formation is the one of the most important reservoir in Southern – Iraq and the injection water important to support the reservoir pressure. The current study combined the interpretations of PLT, structural geology and petro-physics to understand the distribution of the injection rate for nine injection wells to the Mishrif Formation in Shuaiba Dome (or culmination) - Zubair Oil Field. PLT analysis calculated injection rate for Mishrif Formation, structural analysis included geometric and genetic analysis, whereas petrophysics analysis used open hole logs interpretation and core data for the injection wells to determine the petro-physics characteristics (especially the distribution of porosity and permeability). The current study concluded that the injection rate, porosity and permeability of Mishrif Formation distributed unequally across it. This variation is almost regular, whereas the Upper Mishrif more than Lower Mishrif, while Middle Mishrif get the least value. The thickness of Lower Mishrif more than Upper Mishrif. This may affected by a folding mechanism due to tectonic activity (reactivated basement faults and Hormuz salt structures).

Annotation:
ABSTRACT Five oil samples reservoired in the Cretaceous Mishrif Formation from the Ratawi, Zubair, Rumaila North and Rumaila South fields have been analysed using Gas Chromatography – Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS). In addition, fifteen core samples from the Mishrif Formation and 81 core samples from the Lower Cretaceous and Upper Jurassic have been subjected to source rock analysis and palynological and petrographic description. These observations have been integrated with electric wireline log response. The reservoirs of the Mishrif Formation show measured porosities up to 28% and the oils are interpreted as being sourced from: (1) Type II carbonate rocks interbedded with shales and deposited in a reducing marine environment with low salinity based on biomarkers and isotopic analysis; (2) Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous age based on sterane ratios, analysis of isoprenoids and isotopes, and biomarkers, and (3) Thermally mature source rocks, based on the biomarker analysis. The geochemical analysis suggests that the Mishrif oils may have been sourced from the Upper Jurassic Najma or Sargelu formations or the Lower Cretaceous Sulaiy Formation. Visual kerogen assessment and source rock analysis show the Sulaiy Formation to be a good quality source rock with high total organic carbon (up to 8 wt% TOC) and rich in amorphogen. The Lower Cretaceous source rocks were deposited in a suboxic-anoxic basin and show good hydrogen indices. They are buried at depths in excess of 5,000 m and are likely to have charged Mishrif reservoirs during the Miocene. The migration from the source rock is likely to be largely vertical and possibly along faults before reaching the vuggy, highly permeable reservoirs of the Mishrif Formation. Structural traps in the Mishrif Formation reservoir are likely to have formed in the Late Cretaceous.

Annotation:
This study is achieved in the local area in Eridu oil field, where the Mishrif Formation is considered the main productive reservoir. The Mishrif Formation was deposited during the Cretaceous period in the secondary sedimentary cycle (Cenomanian-Early Turonian as a part of the Wasia Group a carbonate succession and widespread throughout the Arabian Plate. There are four association facies are identified in Mishrif Formation according the microfacies analysis: FA1-Deep shelf facies association (Outer Ramp); FA2-Slope (Middle Ramp); FA3-Reef facies (Shoal) association (Inner ramp); FA4-Back Reef facies association. Sequence stratigraphic analysis show there are three stratigraphic surfaces based on the abrupt changing in depositional environments, one of them ((Mishrif –Kifl unconformity) are regionally correlated with the other equivalent formations in surrounding countries within the Arabian Plate. And intra- Mishrif two surfaces are maximum flooding surfaces which represents the deepening up-ward association facies. Two major sequences are identified based on the behaviors of facies association within a sequence of stratigraphic boundaries and system tracts. These sequences include sequence I and sequence II.

Annotation:
The Mishrif Formation of age (Late Cenomanian - Early Turonian) is considered one of the most important geological formations containing oil in southern Iraq. Where it was analyzed the basin geohistory through the Backstripping method, which enabled us to know the geological events that occurred during and after the deposition. Nine wells were chosen from several oil fields to cover the study area (Zb-114, R-270, WQ-17, Rt-5, Lu-2, Ns-5, Ri-1, No-2, and Hf-5), located between the eastern lines (582400-749080) and the northern lines (3534600-3357197). The mathematical models is used to predict sedimentation rates and original thicknesses of Mishrif Formation and the formations above it. It was estimated that the sedimentation rates and erosional thicknesses of the regional unconformity surfaces are located in the stratigraphic column in the study area. Mishrif Formation has characterized a moderate sedimentation rates that ranged between (2-6 cm/1000y), where increase in the northeast of the study area in the wells (Ri-1, No-2, and Hf-5), these rates an indicator to the center of the sedimentary basin. The geological burial curves show three levels of subsidence rates (fast, moderate, and low). The burial history of the Mishrif Formation. and the other formations indicated that the sedimentation rates are in a direct relationship with the total subsidence of the basin. Three regional unconformity surfaces were found which the effectiveness of the tectonic movements, it’s had strong effective to the sedimentary basin of the Mishrif Formation that exposed it to during the Cretaceous period. These movements had a major impact on shaping the sedimentary character through its influence on the process of advancement and retreat of the sea level, which formed successive depositional cycles. As the top of the Mishrif Formation was exposure to uplifting and erosion processes especially in the northeast area of study in Tigris tectonic subzone, formed the first regional unconformity surface about (89-90 Ma) ago.

Annotation:
Mishrif Formation is one of the main oil reservoirs in southern Iraq. This study analyzes the microfacies and depositional environment for Mishrif Formation in North Rumaila oilfield. The study was based on the analysis of 17 wells core. The Mishrif Formation represents deposition in a carbonate platform ramp system, with scattered patch reefs and shoals developed across the ramp margin and the platform top. It is characterized by skeletal grains (bioclasts) which are dominated such as foraminifera, rudist, calcareous Algae and other skeletal grains included mollusks shell fragments with Chondrodonta sometimes, and Echinoderms while non-skeletal grains are less abundant which are represented by Peloids and Ooids. According to the petrography analysis of Mishrif Formation, the fossils are dominated in the formation, four groups of these fossils are diagnosed, and these are Oligosteginid, Alveolinids, Dicyclina and Miliolids. Can be identified and build the sedimentary model with microfacies which apply to the Mishrif Formation. The sedimentological and stratigraphic analysis of Mishrif Formation core led to identification of 16 facies association, seven of which are found in the mB unit (lower part of the Formation) whereas they are deposited in outer ramp, mid ramp, ramp margin and lagoon, while nine in the mA unit (upper part of the formation) which are deposited in intraplate basin, mid ramp, inner ramp, ramp margin and lagoonal supra tidal.

Journal of Petroleum Research and Studies 10, Nr. 3 (15.11.2020): 86–101. http://dx.doi.org/10.52716/jprs.v10i3.331.
Annotation:
The current study combined both concepts of structural geology and petrophysical to understand the structural feature of Mishrif Formation and its implication on the petrophysical characterization of the formation in Shuaiba and Rafidhiya Domes (or culminations) in Zubair Field. Shuaiba and Rafidhiya are adjacent domes and these domes belong to the same Field but the domes separated by saddle may related to Basra – Zubair basement fault.
The domes have different petrophysical properties of Mishrif Formation; consequently, influenced in water and oil saturation. Therefore, the study tries to understand the structural and petrophysical position of Mishrif Formation of the domes. The structural analysis included geometric and genetic analysis, whereas petrophysical analysis used open hole logs interpretation to determine the petrophysical characteristics (especially the distribution of porosity, permeability, and water saturation.
It was concluded that may a variation in porosity and permeability of Mishrif Formation for Shuaiba and Rafidhiya domes because each dome was formed by a different folding mechanism effected on the petrophysical properties. The structural geology analysis detects that may be Shuaiba dome formed by bending fold mechanism (vertical force of salt structure), while Rafidhiya dome by buckling fold mechanism (parallel force of collision of Arabian and Eurasian plate). These mechanisms may directly be affected in permeability distribution, and consequently on oil and water saturation of Mishrif Formation. Thus, Shuaiba Dome has thinning in hinge area and extensional force leads to create fractures and karst phenomena, and as a result, high permeability in upper Mishrif. On the contrary, Rafidhiya Dome has a thickening feature and there is no indication of karst phenomena and low permeability. Therefore, the Mishrif of Shuaiba dome permeable and oil-saturated, while, it flooded with water in Rafidhiya Dome. The disconnection in reservoir pressure confirmed by difference in initial reservoir pressure of Mishrif Formation of Shuaiba Dome and recent reservoir pressure of Mishrif Formation of Rafidhiya Dome

Annotation:
The Mishrif Formation was deemed the main oil reservoir in the Fauqi oilfield, southern Iraq. This paper aims to predict characteristic properties of the Mishrif Formation depending on the interpretation of well logs data. The data were collected from five wells of log images which had been digitized with Didger software version 5. 12. 1762 to be analyzed and interpreted using interactive petrophysics 3.5.1.2 software. The main lithology of the Mishrif Formation in this region was determined using standard (M-N xplot) based on the integration of density-neutron logs. The results confirmed that the Mishrif Formation is mainly composed of limestone units. A Gamma-ray log was used to estimate the shale volume in the Mishrif Formation depending on old rock function. As a result, shale volume relative to the bulk volume was about 19%, and an increasing volume was noticed in the upper reservoir, reaching the highest in the MA and MB11 units. The Mishrif Formation porosity was calculated using the interpretation of neutron, density, and sonic logs. The results showed that the Mishrif Formation is distinctive with low to medium porosity values (4.8 to 17%). The calculation of cores manifested the dominance of secondary porosity in the MB21 unit of the formation in comparison to the other stratigraphic units in the studied area. These results led to a the fact that the MB21 unit was more exposed to dissolution diagenetic processes in the south dome, which provided a good permeability integrated with the medium effective porosity, puttinh it as the main reservoir unit.

Abstract The Mishrif Formation is one of the Iraqi major oil reserves in southern. This formation consists of limestone deposited during a Lower Cretaceous period as part of the main series of transgression depositions. Faihaa oil field is located close to Iraqi-Iranian borders, about 50km to the north of Basra city center. The area of this field is about 900 km2. It is bordered by the north Majnoon oil field, the south Sindibad field, the west Nahr Umr field, and the east husynia Iranian field. The microfacies and depositional environment of the Mishrif Formation in the Faihaa oil field were analyzed in this study. In Mishrif Formation, this study clarified several microscopic facies; more than 273 thin sections of core samples from one well (Faihaa-1) were examined, represented by Mudstone Microfacies Wackestone Microfacies and Packstone-Wackestone Microfacies. They were analyzing diagenesis processes and identifying Mishrif Formation. The two identified diagenetic environments that affected Mishrif reservoir in an open platform and restricted platform environments. The Mishrif Formation recognized five diagenetic processes, each with positive and negative implications on the quality of the reservoir. By creating and improving porosity and permeability, dissolution and dolomitization significantly impacted reservoir quality. Compaction and cementation have negative consequences by decreasing porosity and permeability, leading to reduced reservoir quality.

Annotation:
The Middle to Upper Cenomanian Mishrif Formation of Dubai has been interpreted applying biostratigraphic, sedimentologic and sequence stratigraphic concepts. Fourteen wells have been analysed in core and thin-section. These key wells were chosen to cover the geographical extent of the Mishrif and its stratigraphic distribution in offshore Dubai. The identification of thirteen biofacies is based on the trends In composition of microfossil assemblages. Observations on sedimentary features, both in core and thinsection, were also made. Six age significant bioevents are used to constrain stratigraphic boundaries into a chronological framework, and also as bathymetric indicators. Beneath the top of the Middle Cenomanian a MFS (Maximum Flooding Surface) has been recognised. It is possible to correlate this surface at a regional scale. During the Late Cenomanian small intrashelf basins established in the Dubai area, but shallowwater conditions persisted at some localities. Several erosional surfaces were also identified below the base-Laffan unconformity (top MishrifFormation). Local palaeogeography and structure (e.g.: salt diapiric movement) play important roles within the Gulf region. During the Middle to Late Cenomanian the platform was rhythmically affected by exposure and erosion mainly in the north-western part of the Dubai area (structural highs). Intrashelf basins, often characterised by stagnant conditions (anoxia), were developed especially in the south-eastern part of the region. The study is focused on a better understanding of the depositional model of the Mishrif Formation.

Le but de cette étude est de comprendre les relations entre les roches carbonatées et les paléofluides qui les traversent. Les études paléogéographiques et les descriptions géologiques ainsi que les analyses géochimiques des roches réservoirs ont été réalisées sur la Formation de Mishrif dans le champ pétrolier de Nasiriya (sud-est de l’Iraq). Les données de 5 forages carrotés (NS-1 à NS-5), les rapports de prospections et les données de production du champ de Nassiriya, ont été utilisés. Les analyses des microfaciès montrent que la Formation de Mishrif contient une grande variété d’organismes tels que des formaminifères, des coraux, des rudites ainsi que des algues, microbialites, des pellets, des peloides, des grains aggrégé et des grains arrondis. Par conséquent, la formation de Mishrif serait représentative d’un environnement d’eau de subsurface de la zone évaporitique jusqu’à la zone de récif arrière. Le système de transport des fluides dans la Formation de Mishrif se fait au travers des réseaux de stylolite, des fractures ainsi que du réseau poral. Les inclusions des fluides aqueuses sont composées du système H2O-MgCl2. Les températures homogènes des inclusions des fluides aqueuses varient entre 150 et 175 °C. Les températures homogènes des inclusions des fluides pétrolières représentent les degrés élevés de 225 à 250 °C. Les processus de cimentation indiquent quatre phases d’évènements. La première phase a eu lieu avant la migration d’hydrocarbure. La seconde phase s’est produite pendant la migration de ces hydrocarbures. La troisième phase arrive après le processus de migration. Enfin, la quatrième phase est représentée par la distribution du bitumeThe aim of the present study is related to understand the paleofluid-rock interactions in carbonate rocks and its relation with oil potential during upper Cretaceous. Paleogeography studies, geological descriptions and geochemistry analyses of the reservoir rocks were conducted on the Mishrif Formation of the Nasiriah oil field (south-east of Iraq). The data of drill cores from 5 drillholes (NS-1 to NS-5), exploration reports and production data of the Nasiriyah oil field have been used. The microfacies analyses show that Mishrif includes foraminifera, coral, ruddiest, algae, microbialite, favreina microcoprolite, pellets, peloids, aggregate grains and rounded clastic grains. Therefore, shallow-water environments represent Mishrif paleoenvironments, included evaporitic zone to the back-reef zone of the interior carbonate platform shelf. Transport system in the Mishrif contains stylolite networks, fractures and porosity systems. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) shows the balanced distribution of the transport systems regardless of the microfacies type. The aqueous fluid inclusions are mainly composed of H2O-MgCl2 system. Homogeneous temperatures of the aqueous fluid inclusions range from 150 to 175°C. Homogeneous temperatures of the petroleum fluid inclusions in the latter fractures represent high degrees from 225 up to 250°C. Cementation process exhibits four phases of the cementation events. The first phase took place before the hydrocarbon migration. The second occurred during the hydrocarbon migration.

Annotation:
La microporosité représente jusqu'à 95% de la porosité totale des réservoirs à hydrocarbures et des aquifères dans les calcaires crétacés du Moyen-Orient. Dans ces sédiments microporeux, la porosité est modérée à excellente (jusqu'à 35%), tandis que la perméabilité est faible à modérée (jusqu'à 190mD). A l'inverse, mes faciès microporeux peuvent former des niveaux denses, avec de très faibles porosité et perméabilité (respectivement 2–8% et 0,01–2mD). Dans ce travail, les échantillons proviennent essentiellement de la Formation Mishrif (Cénomanien), mais aussi de la Formation Habshan (Berriasien/Valanginien), afin d'examiner les grandes différences verticales et latérales des propriétés pétrophysiques. Le MEB a été utilisé pour étudier deux contrôles potentiels des qualités réservoir : (1) la morphologie des particules micritiques (forme et contacts intercristallins), et (2) la cristallométrie des micrites, définie comme la taille médiane des particules mesurées sur les clichés MEB. Les données morphométriques ont été comparées avec trois paramètres pétrophysiques (porosité, perméabilité, distribution des rayons de seuil de pore). Les résultats montrent que les matrices micritiques peuvent être subdivisées en trois classes pétrophysiques. La Classe C (micrites strictement microporeuses avec des cristaux grossiers ayant des contacts punctiques à partiellement coalescents) est composée de particules grossières (>2µm), polyhédrales à arrondies. Elle présente des porosités bonnes à excellentes (8-28%), des perméabilités faibles à modérées (0,2-190mD), et des rayons de seuils de pores (PTR) moyens supérieurs à 0,5µm. Cette Classe C est généralement observée dans les shoals bioclastiques riches en rudistes, où de nombreux facteurs sédimentaires (hydrodynamisme…) peuvent défavoriser le dépôt des particules les plus fines. L'étude diagénétique montre que ces micrites grossières peuvent aussi être expliquées par une dissolution précoce des fines particules d'aragonite et de HMC dans des fluides météoriques oxydants, permettant la formation in-situ de surcroissances sur les particules de LMC au sommet de la nappe phréatique météorique. Ces processus induisent une augmentation de la taille des particules micritiques, une lithification précoce de la boue carbonatée, et donc une stabilisation minéralogique précoce des micrites grossières de la Classe C. La Classe F (micrites strictement microporeuses avec des cristaux fins ayant des contacts punctiques à partiellement coalescents, est composée de particules fines (<2µm), polyhédrales à arrondies. Elle présente des porosités bonnes à excellentes (3-35%), mais des valeurs de perméabilité souvent inférieures à 10mD, et des PTR inférieurs à 0,5µm. Cette Classe F est souvent observée dans les sédiments déposés en domaine de plate-forme interne boueuse. La formation de ces micrites fines est aussi expliquée par une stabilisation minéralogique précoce des particules micritiques dans des eaux météoriques confinées, favorisant les processus de néomorphisme, pouvant continuer au cours de l'enfouissement. Plus tard, au cours de l'enfouissement de la série, les qualités réservoirs des Classes C et F sont localement améliorées par de la dissolution mésogénétique (probablement liée à des acides organiques) affectant la matrice micritique durant la mise en charge des réservoirs. La Classe D est formée par des matrices micritiques denses, composées de cristaux anhédraux ou subhédraux avec des contacts fusionnés. Elle présente de très faibles données de porosité et de perméabilité. Ces micrites sont uniquement observées dans les niveaux de plate-forme interne et forment des intervalles inter-réservoirs, généralement en association avec des stylolites et un contenu argileux important, pouvant dépasser 10%. Quelque soit leur mode de formation, ces trois classes peuvent être incorporées dans les futures études de rock-typing portant sur les réservoirs carbonatés microporeux du Moyen-OrientMicroporosity may account for as much as 95% of the total porosity of hydrocarbon and water reservoirs in Cretaceous limestones of the Arabian Gulf. In these microporous facies porosity is moderate to excellent (up to 35%) while permeability is poor to moderate (up to 190mD). Conversely, microporous facies may form dense inter-reservoir or cap rock layers with very low porosity and permeability values (2–8% and 0.01–2mD, respectively). For this study, samples were mainly collected from the Cenomanian Mishrif Formation, but also from the Berriasian-Valanginian Habshan Formation, so as to examine the wide vertical and lateral discrepancies in their petrophysical parameters. Scanning Electron Microscopy was used to investigate two potential controls of reservoir properties: (1) micrite particle morphology (shape and inter-crystal contacts); and (2) micrite crystallometry, defined as the median size of micrite particles measured on SEM photomicrographs. The morphometric data are compared with three petrophysical parameters (porosity, permeability and pore threshold radius distribution). Results reveal that micrite matrixes can be subdivided into three petrophysical classes each with its own distinctive crystallometry, morphology and reservoir properties. Class C (strictly microporous limestones with coarse punctic-to-partially coalescent micrites) is made up of coarse (>2µm) polyhedral to rounded micritic crystals, it has good to excellent porosity (8–28%), poor to moderate permeability (0.2–190mD) and a mean pore threshold radius of more than 0.5µm. The class C is usually observed in rudist-rich bioclastic shoal facies where several sedimentary factors (hydrodynamism, bioproduction …) would disfavour deposition of the finer micritic crystals. Diagenetic study shows that the development of coarse micrites (Class C) must also be explained by the early dissolution of fine aragonite and high magnesium calcite particles in oxygenated meteoric fluids leading to a simultaneous in-situ overgrowth on LMC particles at the top of the meteoric phreatic lens. These processes induce an increase of the crystallometry of micritic particles, an early lithification of the carbonate mud, and so the mineralogical stabilization of coarse Class C micrites. Class F (strictly microporous limestones with fine punctic-to-partially coalescent micrites) is composed of fine (<2µm) polyhedral to rounded micrites with poor to excellent porosity (3–35%), but permeability values of less than 10mD and a mean pore threshold radius of less than 0.5µm. It is mostly observed in sediments deposited in a low energy muddy inner platform setting. The formation of fine micrites (Class F) is also explained by an early mineralogical stabilization of micritic particles in confined meteoric waters, favoring neomorphism processes, which may proceeds during burial. Later, during burial, reservoir properties of classes C and D strictly microporous samples where locally enhanced by mesogenetic dissolution (probably due to organic acids) affecting the microporous matrix during the oil emplacement. Class D (strictly microporous mud-dominated facies with compact anhedral to fused dense micrites) comprises subhedral to anhedral crystals with sutured to fused contacts forming a dense matrix. It has very low porosity and permeability. Class D is only found in low energy muddy inner platform facies and forms inter-reservoir or caps rock layers usually in association with stylolites and clay contents that exceed 10%. Regardless of how they formed, though, the three classes can be usefully incorporated into future rock-typing of the microporous carbonate reservoirs of the Middle East

Abstract In Abu Dhabi, the Mishrif Formation is developed in the eastern and western parts conformably above the Shilaif Formation and forms several commercial discoveries. The present study was carried out to understand the development of the Mishrif Formation over a large area in western onshore Abu Dhabi and to identify possible Mishrif sweet spots as future drilling locations. To achieve this objective, seismic mapping of various reflectors below, above, and within the Mishrif Formation was attempted. From drilled wells all the available wireline data and cores were studied. Detailed seismic sequence stratigraphic analysis was carried out to understand the evolution of the Mishrif Formation and places where the good porosity-permeability development and oil accumulation might have happened. The seismic characters of the Mishrif Formation in dry and successful wells were studied and were calibrated with well data. The Mishrif Formation was deposited during Late Cretaceous Cenomanian time. In the study area it has a gross thickness ranging from 532 to 1,269 ft as derived from the drilled wells; the thickness rapidly decreases eastward toward the shelf edge and approaching the Shilaif basin. The Mishrif was divided into three third-order sequences based on core observations from seven wells and log signatures from 25 wells. The bottom-most sequence Mishrif 1.0 was identified is the thickest unit but was also found dry. The next identified sequence Mishrif 2.0 was also dry. The next and the uppermost sequence identified as Mishrif 3.0 shows a thickness from 123 to 328 ft. All the tested oil-bearing intervals lie within this sequence. This sequence was further subdivided into three fourth-order sequences based on log and core signatures; namely, Mishrif 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3. In six selected seismic lines of 181 Line Km (LKM) cutting across the depositional axis, seismic sequence stratigraphic analysis was carried out. In those sections all the visible seismic reflectors were picked using a stratigraphic interpretation software. Reflector groups were made to identify lowstand systems tract, transgressive systems tract, maximum flooding surface, and highstand systems tract by tying with the observations of log and core at the wells and by seismic signature. Wheeler diagrams were generated in all these six sections to understand the lateral disposition of these events and locales of their development. Based on stratigraphic analysis, a zone with likely grainy porous facies development was identified in Mishrif 3.0. Paleotopography at the top of Mishrif was reconstructed to help delineate areas where sea-level fall generated leaching-related sweet spots. Analysis of measured permeability data identified the presence of local permeability baffles affecting the reservoir quality and hydrocarbon accumulation. This study helped to identify several drilling locations based on a generic understanding of the Mishrif Formation. Such stratigraphic techniques can be successfully applied in similar carbonate reservoirs to identify the prospect areas.

Abstract The Cenomanian-early Turonian Mishrif Formation is an important reservoir rock throughout the Middle East. Although extensive studies have been carried out on the Mishrif Formation across the Middle East, very limited information is available about the Mishrif Formation from the western region of Abu Dhabi. The primary objective of this study is to review the sedimentology of the Mishrif Formation in the oilfields of the western region of Abu Dhabi and to define the petrology, the depositional and diagenetic history, and the reservoir quality. The Mishrif Formation is sedimentologically characterized using an industry-standard lithofacies classification scheme. Subsequent sedimentological interpretations define the depositional evolution of the sediments. Petrologic assessment highlights the depositional texture and successive diagenetic alterations that have affected the sediments, thereby modifying the reservoir properties. The Mishrif sediments represent deposition on a carbonate ramp system modified by a potential barrier shoal, along with localized relief developing shoal-like geobodies. A broad range of lithofacies represent the range from wackestone to boundstones, with the sediments interpreted to represent deposition in a shoal complex through backshoal and rudist buildups to a distal mid-ramp to an outer ramp setting. A petrographic study reveals multiple diagenetic phases have affected the sediments. Porosity is enhanced considerably due to multiple leaching phases, which are followed by subsequent cementing phases comprised of calcite and dolomite that degrades the porosity in places. Fracture events do not seem to have any significant impact towards enhancing the reservoir properties as they remain dominantly filled by cements but locally, a few fractures, which are open, contribute to enhancing the connectivity. A moderate to very good reservoir quality is inferred for the sediments of the Mishrif Formation. The porosity values range between 7% to 34% and permeability values from 0.06mD to >10 D. Interrogation of the core analysis data indicates a depositional control along with a diagenetic influence on the reservoir quality. This study helps to resolve the complexities associated with the sedimentological makeup and diagenesis of the Mishrif Formation in the western region of Abu Dhabi. The understanding from this study will help in further works related to reservoir geomodelling and pattern prediction, which may also be extrapolated to uncored intervals for representativeness and regional correlation of the Mishrif Formation.

Abstract In Western UAE, the Middle Cretaceous petroleum system is composed of Shilaif source, Mishrif/Tuwayil reservoir and Tuwayil/Ruwaydha seal. Oil is discovered in Tuwayil sandstone in DH and NN fields. Well correlation of Tuwayil siliciclastic interval shows high heterogeneity and rapid lithology varies. Currently, a few general studies about Tuwayil sandstone was published. However, detailed sedimentary facies, reservoir characteristics and accumulation mechanism about Tuwayil are ambiguous. Limitation on these aspects prohibits enlarging exploration activity of Tuwayil and makes barriers to deepen understanding of the whole K2 PS. To enhance understanding on Tuwayil formation, well data in DH, NN fields and adjacent area was integrated. Dedicated single well analysis, well correlation and petrophysics study were carried out. Cores were observed and laboratory outcomes including TS, SEM, RCA, MICP, XRD were adopted into this study. Furthermore, we have also utilized 2D&3D seismic to illustrate the spatial distribution of Tuwayil siliciclastic setting and interior sediment pattern. Basically, the Tuwayil sand-shale interval represents the infilling of Mishrif/Shilaif intrashelf basin and mainly deposits in the tidal flat-delta facies. The epi-continental clast is sourced from the Arabian shield and transferred from west to east. In Western UAE, the Tuwayil depocenter located in DH field, where 4-5 sand layers deposit with net pay of 30-40ft. In NN field, only one sand layer develops with net pay about 4-6ft. Through deposition cycles identification and seismic reflection observation, two sand groups could be recognized in this interval. The lower group is constrained in the depocenter and influenced by the paleo-geomorphology background. The upper group overpassed the former set and pinched out around north of NN. The Mishrif/Shilaif slope area is another potential belt to enlarge Tuwayil discovery, where stratigraphic onlap could be observed and it probably represents the sand pinch-out in lower sand group. For the K2 PS, previous study believed the shale between Tuwayil sand and Mishrif separate these two reservoirs and works as cap rock for Mishrif grainstone. This study suggests that this shale is too thin and not continuous enough to hold the hydrocarbon in Mishrif. On that note, Tuwayil sand and Mishrif belong to the same petroleum system in NN and may have the same OWC. In the NN field, it is quite crucial to consider the extension of Tuwayil sand during evaluating the stratigraphic prospect of Mishrif because the hydrocarbon is mostly likely charged Tuwayil sand first and then gets into underlain Mishrif. This study provides updates and understandings on sedimentary facies, depositional pattern, hydrocarbon accumulation mechanism, reservoir extension and potential identification of Tuwayil formation, which has inspiring implications for the whole K2 PS and could also de-risk the further exploration activity in Western UAE.

Abstract Mishrif is a tight naturally fractured carbonate oil reservoir in Minagish field of west Kuwait, developed over an asymmetrical anticline having wide variation in porosity ranging from 10% to 25% and a matrix permeability ranging from 0.1 mD to 4 mD. The reservoir is composed of multiple layers with a calcareous shale cap. It is exclusively being produced from the upper layers, with intensive focus being on a more porous M9 layer at 5,000 ft true vertical depth subsea (TVDSS). Given the limited permeability anisotropy (kv/kh) and lack of aquifer support, the drop in reservoir pressure can be severe. Even though there is large remaining reserves, the amount of oil actually participating in production could be limited. Most openhole producers are located in the north of the field where potential north/south and northeast/southwest faults associated with different types of fractures exist. In a successful development plan in Mishrif field 15 years ago, only a few wells were drilled. Then, the well behavior significantly changed for the 30 wells drilled to date in the Mishrif. This study proposes a new insight in developing Mishrif field arrived at through a detailed structural and geomechanical analysis to capture the variability of key reservoir properties and the affecting factors including well-to-well interference. Following the analysis, a new optimal stimulation workflow and new production practices were initiated to achieve effective and economical wells. In the northern part of the field, 23 producers are located mostly in regions with strong pressure depletion and significant well interference. Temperature logs run in problematic wells enabled identification of high-permeability zones and quantification of loss zones. The production surveys in high performing wells unlocked an understanding of the natural fracture characterization from image logs. These analyses were followed by chemical and mechanical isolation that has resulted in production improvement across many of the wells. The wells located in undeveloped central and southern regions have sustained flow capacity and higher reservoir pressure. This area shows a high remaining oil in place and historical well performance shows potential for sustained production. The current field development plan under primary depletion has been updated with drilling limited to undepleted regions to avoid the production interference via faults seen in the north of the field. The implementation of this detection and stimulation workflow presents a highly efficient and cost-effective solution for the stimulation of openhole tight carbonate reservoirs. The success of this intervention highlights the importance of continuously investigating changes in the drilling, completion, and stimulation approach to optimize production and maximize the recovery of resources from challenging reservoirs.
