Evaluation of Petrophysical Properties of Mishrif, Rumiala, Ahmadi, and Mauddud Formations in Nasiriya Oil Field—Middle of Iraq

Petrophysical parameters were assessed using comprehensive log data coming from two wells (Ns-2, Ns-4) located within the Mishrif, Rumaila, Ahmadi, and Mauddud formations within the Nasiriya oil field, Iraq. The logs were digitized using Techlog 2015 software, and environmental modifications were implemented to guarantee precise interpretations. The shale volume used to be determined using gamma ray (GR) logs, subsequently leading towards the calculation of the effectiveness porosity. Water saturation is used to be calculated alongside Archie's equation. The investigation indicated that the lithology regarding the Mishrif, Rumaila, Ahmadi, and Mauddud formations happens to be predominantly limestone, alongside calcite like the principal mineral within the matrix. All formations were found to contain water like the fluid type, except within favor regarding the Mishrif formation at the 2013–2046 m within Ns-2, and 2000–2060 m within Ns-4, where hydrocarbons were identified. The top strata for these depths comprise substantial shale alongside limited effective porosity, serving like cap rock at the depths from 2013 to 2016 m within Ns-2, and 2000 towards 2006 m within Ns-4.
