Abstract:

The Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous Macedon Member turbidite sandstones of the lower Barrow Group form the reservoir intervals of the Stybarrow Oil Field in the Southern Exmouth Sub-basin. Individual sand units range from a few metres up to 20 m in gross thickness. The distribution and shape of these sand bodies and interbedded shales fundamentally control the connectivity and flow characteristics (producibility) of the reservoir.

This paper outlines how, through the integration of seismic, well and production data, and through the use of outcrop analogues, insights can be gained into detailed reservoir-scale stratigraphic relationships.
