Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePlane Versus Elastic Wave AVO Anisotropic Synthetic Modeling in Derby Field, Southeastern Niger DeltaChukwuemeka Ngozi Ehirim, Nnamdi Ogbonna ChikezieAVO based Zoeppritz’s plane wave and elastic spherical wave anisotropic synthetic modelling have been investigated in Derby field, Southeastern Niger delta. The objective of the study is to investigate the influence of anisotropy on plane and elastic wave AVO synthetics modeling over shale-gas sand horizons in the field. Well log data was check shot corrected and correlated with pre-stack data … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 6 May 2017 · 7,896 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePetrophysical Properties Distribution Modelling of an Onshore Field, Niger Delta, NigeriaGodwin Omokenu EmujakporueThis research is based on the modelling of petrophysical parameters distribution of an onshore oil field in Niger Delta. The methodology involves the construction of 3-D grids that represent the reservoir geometry, accompany by property modeling where the 3-D grids were populated with petrophysical properties (porosity, water saturation, net to gross ratio, facies and permeability). The objective is to construct … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2017 · 14,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSubsidence Inferred from a Time Lapse Reservoir Study in a Niger Delta Field, NigeriaChukwuemeka Ngozi Ehirim, Tamunonengiyeofori DagogoProduction-induced subsidence due to compressibility and fluid property changes in a Niger delta field has been investigated using well log and 4D seismic data sets. The objective of the study is to evaluate changes in time lapse seismic attributes due to hydrocarbon production and infer to probable ground subsidence. Petrophysical modeling and analysis of well data revealed that Density (ρ), … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 25 Oct 2016 · 8,216 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStatistical Analysis of Geothermal Data of an Oil Field, in Parts of Niger Delta, NigeriaEmujakporue Godwin Omokenu, Leonard I. NwosuGeothermal gradient and heat flow were computed from bottom hole temperatures in an oil field in Niger Delta, Nigeria. The statistical analysis of computed geothermal data was carried out. The computed geothermal gradient vary from 17.3±0.14 to 24.33±0.70°C/Km with an average of 22.24±0.57°C/km. The heat flow ranges from 38.06±0.31 to 56.39±2.41 mWm-2 with an average of 50.15±1.25 mWm-2. The computed … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 26 Sep 2016 · 7,963 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHeterogeneities and Intra Sand-Body Compartmentalization in Late Oligocene Delta-Front Deposit, Niger Delta, NigeriaRaphael Oaikhena Oyanyan, Michael Ndubuisi OtiThis paper presents the study of the heterogeneity in lithofacies, porosity, permeability, mineral grain density, pore-throats sizes and hydraulic rock types and the intra sand-body compartmentalization in cored delta-front deposit of Greater Ughelli depobelt of Niger Delta. Sedimentological study of core samples results in the identification of nine lithofacies and the interpretation of environments of deposition as mainly proximal and … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2016 · 8,090 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReconstruction of the Depositional Setting of Tortonian Sediments in the Yowi Field, Shallow Offshore Niger Delta, Using Wireline LogsPrince Suka Momta, Minapuye Isaac OdigiWell logs and ditch-cuttings information was used to study the subsurface of the Yowi oilfields, shallow offshore, in the eastern Niger Delta sedimentary basin. The essence of the study was to determine the gross depositional environments of selected and-bodies. Electrofacies trends from gamma ray log and mineral composition of ditch-cutting samples were used to reconstruct the depositional environments in the … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2016 · 7,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePetrophysical Characterization and Flow Models for Agbada Reservoirs, Onshore Niger Delta, NigeriaPrince Suka Momta, John Owate Etu-Efeotor, Charles Ugwu UgwuezeThree selected reservoirs (XB, XC and XE) from three wells (A, B and C) occurring within the Agbada producing sands in part of the Greater Ughelli Depobelt of the onshore Niger Delta have been studied. The study aims at evaluating the petrophysical characteristics of the sand-bodies and also identifies the various flow units present within each reservoir. Petrophysical parameters were … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 21 Oct 2015 · 7,910 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePalynological Studies of Sediments from North Chioma-3 Well, Niger Delta and its Palaeoenvironmental InterpretationsOlugbenga Ebenezer Ige, Kalyani Datta, Kanak Sahai, Krishna Kumar RawatProblem statement: The Niger Delta Nigeria stands among the world's best-studies delta complexes but its superficial deposits are among the poorest known publicity. In spite of continuous oil prospecting production in the area, there is still a paucity of published information and data on the palynology of the Niger Delta. This study aimed at reconstructing the palaeoenvironments of the Niger … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 10 Oct 2011 · 7,884 accessesView PDFCite

TawariProblem statement: Elechi Creek of the Upper Bonny Estuary in the Niger Delta contributes to the Rivers State Fish resources. It is a sink receiving organic anthropogenic wastes from Diobu, Eagle Island and waterfront dwellers of Diobu areas. Fishing, car washing, bathing, swimming and other human activities are constantly going on within and around this creek. Based on these activities, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,968 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleContinuous Wavelet Transform Based Spectral Decomposition of 3d Seismic Data for Reservoir Characterization in Oyi Field, se Niger DeltaChukwuemeka Ngozi Ehirim, Andifon Sylvester AkpanContinuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) is one of the most used wavelet transform based spectral decomposition methods in the direct detection of hydrocarbons and as an indicator of stratigraphic variability due to its optimal time-frequency resolution and variable time window requirements.
