Abstract :
Abstract Kangan Formation in the Study Area is about 444 meters thick and is mainly composed of Limestone and dolomite with randome interbeds of Anhydrites. In this article, Rock Types are determind by Electro Facies and Hydrolic Flow Units (HFU) method using the Core data, Gamma -Ray, Density and Neutron Porosity petrophysical logs of one of the Field’s wells. Rock Types determination can be a practical solution for categorizing reservoir’s facies aiming assesment of reservoir rock’s petrophysical properties and diffrentiating high potential producer zones from low potential ones. Hence clustering method based on Multi Resolution Graph-Based Clustering (MRGC) which is a “Non Parametric” statistical method, of umpteenth near value and graphical presentation of data, was implyed on Neutron Porosity, Density and Gamma-Ray logs to re-construct equivalent electro facies to the ones obtained from core. At the end, final clusters are formed by combining small clusters where five facies were recognized. The used method in this research eleminates the need of repeated coring and leads to a major cost and time saving. More over the Rock Types were also determind by Hydrolic Flow Units method. Hydrolic Flow Units is a method for categorizing the variety of Rocks according to their flowing properties based on geological and physical flow in pore scale. Five Rock Types were determind by this method also, which had good conformity with the ones from previous method in many locations. In some locations of course the results were not as good which could be as a result of non uniform sampling and human error.
