Haynesville Core Study

STUDY OF THE NORTH FRISCO CITY AND NORTH ROME FIELDS – HAYNESVILLE CORE STUDY

The Haynesville core study focuses is on two fields. The Frisco City Member of the Jurassic Haynesville Formation at North Frisco City Field and North Rome Field in Alabama. Project components include detailed sedimentology on 680 feet of core from eight (8) wells. Mineralogy, texture, grain fabric and pore system properties were described and documented from thin sections, X-ray diffraction and SEM analyses. These data provided the basis for a discussion on diagenetic alterations and their effect on reservoir potential.

Laboratory measured permeability, porosity, saturations and electrical properties performed on the cored wells were tabulated to be used for improved formation evaluation using wireline logs and appear in individual well reports. Display panels are provided that illustrate core-to-log correlations that incorporate depositional environmental interpretations and core data. Stratigraphic cross sections summarize and illustrate lateral facies relationships across each field and exploration guidelines are presented based on the integration of a detailed depositional model with a paleogeographic reconstruction of the study area.
