This study provides a high resolution (reservoir scale) stratigraphic calibration of the Late Paleocene reservoir interval from Quadrants 15 and 16, UKCS.
The 30 well dataset focuses on the upper Maureen – lower Sele Formation and in particular the Mey Sandstone Member and the Lista Formation.
The well dataset includes a high proportion of the fields in the area together with a number of offset wells. This study consequently provides a unified stratigraphic dataset that subdivides the Mey Sandstone Member into 8 units that can be correlated between the various fields. This study highlights the areal extent of the various phases of sand deposition and provides a valuable insight into fairway switching and backstepping of the system.
