Applying paleomagnetic oriented coring in investigating the lithofacies heterogeneity of terrigenous sediments

Abstract

This paper described the investigation of heterogeneous structure of oil field reservoirs via paleomagnetic oriented coring. As a rule, this heterogeneity develops during either sedimentation or secondary generation of terrigenous matter, which, in its turn, affects the lateral permeability in the layers. Applying oriented coring determines the vector behavior of anisotropic structure of oil fields which influence further production.
