Your team is evaluating development of the West Sparkle field. A new well WS-2 penetrated 30 meters of the
target X sand. A summary of the log calculations on 3 meter intervals are attached. Several rotary sidewall
core plugs were cut. Routine porosity and permeability measurements were made as well as air-brine
capillary pressures.
1. What are the appropriate average values for thickness, porosity, water saturation and permeability for
the X sand in the WS-2 well?
2. Determine, if you can, how many rock types are present and their location
Note: Production tests from the WS-2 have yielded only dry gas. Therefore all calculated water saturations can be
assumed to be at irreducible values
