Abstract
This manuscript describes how such a multidisciplinary asset team approach was used to determine the petrography, reservoir and petrophysical properties of the tight gas reservoirs in the Thrace Basin Turkey. Geological details and detailed core studies were integrated into petrophysical analyses, along with mud logs to identify the unconventional pay zones for executing hydraulic fracture stimulation in the area. As a result, stimulations were designed to avoid frequent interlaced water-bearing sand stringers and resulted in numerous successful recompletions of the existing wells, drilling of vertical and horizontal wells with increasing recoverable reserve by over 40 Billion Standard Cubic Feet (BCF) in proved reserves during a 2 year project.
