A Seismic Attribute Study To Assess Well Productivity In The Ninilchik Field, Cook Inlet Basin, Alaska, Andrew Sampson
LSU Master's Theses
Coal bed methane which has formed in the Tertiary Kenai Group strata has been produced from the Ninilchik field of Cook Inlet, Alaska since 2001. Ninilchik field is located on the eastern margin of the central Cook Inlet along the Kenai Peninsula. Cook Inlet is a forearc basin and is characterized by northeast trending anticlines with upwards of 10,000 feet of Late Oligocene and younger, non-marine sediments. Highly variable well production within the Oligocene to Miocene Tyonek formation of the Kenai Group has been a source of uncertainty. A series of seismic attributes visualized in Schlumberger's Petrel® software were studied …
