Hydrocarbon type detection using the synthetic logs: A case study, Baba member, Gulf of Suez, Egypt

The results of this study revealed that, 1) the synthetic logs play a great role in solving of petrophysical and geological problems, 2) there is a good relationship between the density and sonic logs in the analogues (A and D) wells, and 3) the obtained synthetic sonic log makes a sense with lithology and other logs (neutron and gamma). Therefore, the synthetic sonic log, in corporation with the density and the neutron logs as well as the crossplots can detect the fluid type in the studied wells. The final result that the most likely hydrocarbon type in well (B) is oil while it has gas signature in well (C).
