Abstract

Summary

The paper presents result of Factor Analysis applied to Upper Ordovician and Lower Silurian shale gas sediments from three wells located in Baltic Basin, Poland. Jantar Member and Sasino Formation, considered as sweet spots, were especially investigated with regard to their heterogeneity. The study confirms huge diversity of these formations – they differ between each other, between adjacent fine clastic deposits and they exhibit changeability from one well to another. Applied Factor Analysis also showed which petrophysical parameters play important role in characterization and description of complicated nature of these formations.
