Western Michigan University - Principal Investigator: Dr. Michael Grammer
Objective: The primary goals of this study are aimed at improving recovery from the Albion‐Scipio hydrothermal dolomite trend. Specific goals are 1) to determine how reservoir quality units that developed laterally away from the major fault zones are controlled by primary facies and their position within a sequence stratigraphic framework; 2) to correlate laboratory measured sonic velocity data from various reservoir and non‐reservoir facies to sonic logs and 3‐D seismic signatures; and 3) to produce 3‐D stratigraphic and reservoir models using Schlumberger’s 3‐D Petrel modeling software that will be tested with recently drilled wells.
Period of Performance: October 14, 2009 to July 31, 2012
