Conventional Cores Allow Development of High Confidence Models for a Malay Basin Field

The paper illustrates the benefits of a comprehensive core database to develop robust geological interpretations for input to static modeling. Reservoirs from the D and E groups from the Malay Basin are discussed in terms of depositional environments and reservoir geometries. The differences between these models and those previously developed without the core derived input are illustrated in terms of their impact on history matching and prediction of future drilling opportunities.
