Identifying Fluid Type and Contacts in Carbonate Reservoirs

Present-day fluid type and contacts in carbonate reservoirs can<br>be difficult to determine from standard formation evaluation<br>techniques because of complex rock properties and variable<br>fluid compositions. In such situations, integrating novel rockbased<br>geochemical analyses of adsorbed and inclusion-trapped<br>fluids helps reduce fluid contact uncertainty and evaluate the<br>probability of various fluid types.
