Oil and Gas production

1. When drilling a well found sand stone layer assumed to have oil and
after examine the history of the area found that if the rock porosity
more than 13.8% then the rock have the ability to hold good
economic amount of oil
A sample test carried out on the rock found:-
- Dry weight of sample, Wdry = 1500 g
- Weight of sample saturated with water, Wsat = 1240 g
- Density of water = 1.0 g/cm3
- Sample is a cylindrical core with D= 6.5 cm and L= 8 cm.

Is this sand stone layer can be oil produced layer or not.

2. Using the porosity LS method with the following data, calculate the
pore and bulk volumes and the porosity.
- Dry weight of sample, Wdry = 672.4 g
- Weight of sample saturated with water, Wsat = 542.1 g
- Density of water, = 1.0 g/cm3
- Sample is a perfect cube with L= 6.3 cm.
