Petrophysical interpretation and fluid substitution modelling of the upper shallow marine sandstone reservoirs in the Bredasdorp Basin, offshore South Africa
(Springer Nature, 2020)
The fluid substitution method is used for predicting elastic properties of reservoir rocks and their dependence on pore fluid
and porosity. This method makes it possible to predict changes in elastic response of a rock ...
Static reservoir modeling using stochastic method: A case study of the cretaceous sequence of Gamtoos Basin, Ofshore, South Africa
(Springer, 2021)
Gamtoos Basin is an echelon sub-basin under the Outeniqua ofshore Basin of South Africa. It is a complex rift-type basin
with both onshore and ofshore components and consists of relatively simple half-grabens bounded by ...
Untitled
(2021)
Aptian to Campanian sediments from the Western ofshore to Central Orange Basin were studied by integrating molecular
geochemistry, inorganic and isotopic studies to recognize their geochemical characteristics via the ...
Source rock evaluation of Afowo clay type from the Eastern Dahomey Basin, Nigeria: Insights from different measurements
(Springer Nature, 2020)
The Cretaceous Afowo Formation in the Eastern Dohamey Basin is characterized by an admixture of lithofacies ranging from sandstones, claystones, shales, clays, sand/shale, and sand/clay intercalations. The sandy facies, a ...
Metal–metal correlation of biodegraded crude oil and associated economic crops from the Eastern Dahomey Basin, Nigeria
(MDPI, 2022)
The presence of heavy metals in plants from oil sand deposits may reflect mineralization
resulting from petroleum biodegradation. Petroleum composition and heavy metal analyses were performed
using thermal desorption gas ...
The impact of detrital minerals on reservoir flow zones in the North Eastern Bredasdorp basin, South Africa, using core data
(MDPI, 2022)
The present study uses core data to group reservoirs of a gas field in the Bredasdorp Basin offshore South Africa into flow zones. One hundred and sixty-eight core porosity and permeability data were used to establish ...
Determination of total organic carbon content using Passey's method in coals of the central Kalahari Karoo Basin, Botswana
(2022)
This paper focuses on determining total organic carbon (TOC) from boreholes in the Kalahari Basin, Botswana, using Passey's method. The Kalahari Karoo basin is one of several basins in southern Africa filled with Late ...
Shale-gas potential from Cretaceous succession in South Africa’s orange basin: insights from integrated geochemical evaluations
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Shale sediments were collected from four Cretaceous stratigraphic units across four explorations well locations in South Africa’s Orange Basin and analysed to determine organic-matter characteristics, such as amount, ...
Sandstone reservoir zonation of the north-western Bredasdorp Basin South Africa using core data
(Elsevier, 2021)
This study delineates sandstone reservoir flow zones in the north-western Bredasdorp Basin, offshore South
Africa, using conventional core porosity and permeability data. The workflow begins by integrating sedimen-
tology ...
