All working is to be shown below each question Question 11 (6 marks) In a water bearing sand the resistivity reads 0.48 ohm-m. In a shallower oil bearing sand of the same porosity the resistivity reads 16 ohm-m. Estimate the water saturation of the oil sand, and state all assumptions made. Question 12 (12 marks) In a clean hydrocarbon sandstone, the neutron and density logs read 12 and 36 sandstone porosity units respectively. The shallowest resistivity reading across the formation is 8 ohm-m and the resistivity of the mud filtrate at the formation temperature is 0.06 ohm-m. Determine: (a)The in-situ hydrocarbon density.
