2.3 GEOLOGY OF NIGER DELTA BASIN
The Niger Delta part of Nigeria is situated in the great depth of the Guinean gulf. Its
stratifications are regulated by fault zones just like the Charcot and Chain connected
to Atlantic Ocean outlet. It is presently found in South Western end of the major
troughs in Nigeria trough. The Guinean gulf has bordered around the Southern region
the central axis of the West Africa defined equator (Telford, 2014).The basin is found
in three formations such as Akata formation, Agbada formation and the formation of
Benin. With visible depositional phases and the stratigraphic successions as shown on

It was asserted by Coulombs that lines of force in a magnet are related to an attractive
force that exist with two opposite charges. He prove mathematically that the two basic
forces exist between two electrically charged bodies as well as magnetic dipoles. His
derivation were based on the popular law of the inverse which was proposed at the
earlier stage of his research that were jointly published Sir Isaac Newton (Rush,2009).
Applying a suitable mathematical model, the sum of forces present in a magnet is:
𝑛𝑔
𝐹 ∑𝑖=1 𝑟𝑔𝑖 𝑘 = 𝐹1 𝐹2 1
Here, k is the magnetic rotating permeability and r is the distance between the two
poles.
The Strength of Field in a Magnetic (𝐹𝑔) is the strength of the pole per access point
𝑛𝑔
𝜌(𝐹𝑔𝑖 , 𝜆) = 𝑌𝑇 + 𝜆(𝑃𝑑 − ∑𝑖=1 𝑃𝑔𝑖 ) 2
Where 𝜆 represent the magnetic effect multiplier with respect to equation ().

Equation (7) expresses clearly the strength of the magnetic force found at the
catchment lineament that the optimal exploration of hydrocarbon is feasible at the
point where the input-output of the shales volume characterized in all associated study

By putting (19) into (20), we then arrived equation (21) by applying the linearment
propagation system flow. Therefore, the error within the crude reserve is expressed

Converting equation (22) to a layer of reserve for easy modelling, the input variables
would follow the order to produce total quantity of holding reserve error as shown in
the partial deferential of gradient of total reserve with respect to quantity as follows:
𝜕𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑣𝑒

If the partial derivative of Total reserve with respect to one quantity is 1, then,
𝜕𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑣𝑒

𝜕𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑡𝑦
Put equations (20) and (21) into equation (24), the actual reserve as well as the

𝜕𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑙 𝑑𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑣𝑒
Computing the partial reserve of all the mineral deposit, we can therefore
adjust the quantity in proportion to the reserve rate as thus:
𝜕𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑣𝑒
