Introduction Oil and Gas Industry
The Planet Earth - Earth Structure
The earth is essentially a sphere approximately 8,000 miles in diameter. A circumference of approximately 25,000 miles.

•
Too Old.. 4.5 Billion Years
Introduction Oil and Gas Industry
How can the earth’s age be measured?
Introduction Oil and Gas Industry
How the Hydrocarbon is formed? ⚫
Formed from Organic Matters buried during deposition –
⚫ ⚫
⚫
⚫
Plants and their components, Lipit, Algae,…. etc
The depositions bury all deeper and deeper Going deeper, – Temperature increases – Pressure increases Pressure and Temperature COOK these organic matters and create the hydro-carbon (oil / gas) This is called ‘Source Rock’
Introduction Oil and Gas Industry
What is needed to drill a hydrocarbon well? ⚫
Reservoir –
What is a reservoir?
Introduction Oil and Gas Industry
Reservoir Rocks Reservoir Rock
Porosity Hydrocarbon and Water Live here
Introduction Oil and Gas Industry
From the Source Rock to the Reservoir Rock Which one has the higher density? Hydrocarbon (oil and gas) or Water
Then hydrocarbon will migrate to take the water place
High Pressure High Temperature Hydrocarbon is cooked here
Introduction Oil and Gas Industry
Petroleum Reservoirs Three components 1. 2. 3.
Hydrocarbon SOURCE Reservoir PORUS Rock for the hydrocarbon to LIVE in Hydrocarbon Ceiling to stop hydrocarbon migration
Sandstone Limestone Dolomite
Introduction Oil and Gas Industry
Finding the Reservoir ⚫
Geologists –
⚫
Based on the understanding of the deposition through the years, they can predict the possibility of hydrocarbon accumulation
GeoPhysicists –
They confirm what the geologists have predicted

The Possible Accumulation is identified. Now what?
Let’s Explore it by Drilling
Introduction Oil and Gas Industry
Wells Types ⚫ ⚫
Vertical wells Deviated wells –
⚫
Slanted
Horizontal wells –
Lateral wells
Introduction Oil and Gas Industry
Why not always vertical?
More Complex but produces more
L1
L2
L2 > L1, Means More Hydrocarbon Requires study and planning but Pays Off
