Description

This conversation with Greg Baniak is about dual porosity and dual permeability due to ichnology, based on his study titled "Reservoir characterization of burrow-associated dolomites in the Upper Devonian Wabamun Group, Pine Creek gas field, central Alberta, Canada" by Greg Baniak, Murray Gingras, and George Pemberton.In this study the dolomitization of burrows in a limestone matrix increase the reservoir quality, as shown by spot permeametry work done on cores.  How do you know what your bioturbation intensity is? How do you know the distribution?  How do we know the type of traces we're dealing with?  How can we know if we're actually dealing with a dual porosity dual permeability system?  What kind of reserves are we going to allocate to those intervals?  Are we going to use generic core plugs, or are we going to use bulk permeability sampling to populate our models and come up with gas in place volumes?  There's a lot of different aspects to it that we can start manipulating as geologists and better inform the decisions that need to be made.May this exchange serve to expand your geological knowledge on the go.For more information go to www.stoneconsulting.infoCitation: Greg M.
