In this article, a computerized well logging analysis for Raha Formation, using eight wells scattered in Ras Budran Field in the Gulf of Suez, was done utilizing different types of open-hole well logs such as: gamma-ray, density, and resistivity.
Abstract
The present study deals with the computerized well logging analysis for Raha Formation, using eight wells scattered in Ras Budran Field in the Gulf of Suez. This study was done utilizing different types of open-hole well logs such as: gamma-ray, density, and resistivity. The considered wells don't produce from the Raha Formation although it has suitable amount of oil with good values of the different petrophysical parameters. This is related to the absent of effective porosity which is considered in this paper through the discrimination of effective from ineffective porosity by using resistivity logs. These logs are considered as the most useful and helpful tool in detecting high effective porosity zones.

The Velocity-Deviation Log: A Tool to Predict Pore Type and Permeability Trends in Carbonate Drill Holes from Sonic and Porosity or Density Logs

TL;DR: In this paper, the velocity deviation log is calculated by first converting porosity-log data to a synthetic velocity log using a time-average equation, and the difference between the real sonic log and the synthetic sonic log can then be plotted as a velocity-deviation log.

Microporosity in micritic limestones: a review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that microporosity is extensively developed in many ancient, subsurface micritic limestones, including significant petroleum reservoirs, and that these limestones represent the depositional environments of shallow carbonate platforms and are not true chalk deposits.
