Please solve fastly this question Youare an oil and gas exploration reservoir engineer and your manger asked you to calculate the porosity for the following reservoir. Seismic data have been used to delineate reservoir structure (The length of this reservoir is about 200 meter, thickness is 1 meter and width is 0.8 km). A- Calculate the bulk volume of the reservoir in m3 . Make sure all the unit is consistent with each other. B- Assume that the pore spaces of the sediment in the oil-bearing unit are full of oil 32000m3. Calculate the porosity of the reservoir. C- Based on the porosity value. Is this negligible, poor, fair , or very good reservoir ( try to find table for reservoir classification based on porosity value)
