IIT Madras team detects petroleum reserves in Assam

Assam News Desk !!! Researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) have developed a statistical approach that provides important information on the distribution of rock types and hydrocarbon saturation in the TIPM Formation in the Upper Assam Basin. Researchers have used this approach to analyze data obtained from seismic surveys and analyze the Logs of the best known for their Petroleum Reserve from the North Assam region. The approach is characterized by rock structures with sub -collection and detects petroleum and hydrocarbon reserves. They were able to get accurate information on the spread of rock types and hydrocarbon saturation in areas with a depth of 2.3 km. It is a challenging task to unleash underground shell structures. Methods for earthquake survey and good-log data are used to understand the structure below the Earth’s surface. In a seismic survey, acoustic vibrations are sent through the soil. While the waves collide with different rocky layers, they are reflected with different properties. The reflected waves are absorbed and the image of underground rock structure is created using reflections data. In good sticks, there is a description of different layers of the earth that appears while digging a well of oil. This research was led by prof. Rajesh R. Nair, Faculty, Petroleum Engineering Program, Sea Engineering Department, IIT Madras. The conclusions were published in the prestigious magazine Nature Scientific Reports. Co-writing of Paper, Mr. M. Nagendra Babu and dr. Venkatesh Ambati researchers of IIT Madras, prof. Rajesh R. was done with Nair. Since the discovery of the Digboi oil sector in Upper Assam, more than 100 years, Assam Arakan has been portrayed as ‘category-i’ bowl, suggesting that they have significant amounts of hydrocarbon reserves. Petroleum is found in the pores of underground rock structures containing hydrocarbons. To identify petroleum reservoirs in the oil -rich valleys of Assam, there is a need to examine the rocky structure of the region and detect hydrocarbon saturation areas. Prof. Rajesh R. Nair, Professor of Petroleum Engineering Program, the Department of Engineering, emphasized the need for such research. said: “The features of the sub-out-from-out structures to locate the rituals include the use of data analysis methods that obtain statistical relationships between earthquake data and petrophic data from good logs. These relationships help to estimate the petrophic properties of the Substate. To detect the Upper Assam sink. converted into quantitative rock property details of a reservoir. Our team has a kind of seismic derivative, called ‘Symmetrician system’. PI to identify flowing material in the sandstone reservoir.
