2. CONTENT Aim Why? Study Area Geology of the study area Petroleum Reservoir Rock Properties of Guney Formation Petrographic Examinations Reservoir Rock Analyses Diagenetic steps of the Guney Formation Results

3. Aim to demonstrate petroleum reservoir rock properties of Guney formation in Eregli-Ulukisla Basin in Turkey

4. Study Area

5. Why? Eregli-Ulukışla basin is related to Tuz Golu Basin. The studies of hydrocarbon investigation in Tuz Golu Basin have yielded positive results until now, and The previous studies indicated that there was occurence of natural gas There can be hydrocarbon potential in Ereğli-Ulukisla basin The previous studies indicated that Ciftehan, Halkapınar and Hasangazi formations in Eregli-Ulukısla Basin have poor-medium petroleum source rock properties Guney formation is laterally transitive to Hasangazi formation which carries petroleum source rock properties. TOC analysis results of Guney formation below 0.5% represents that Guney Formation can not be evaluated as a petroleum source rock Sedimentary rock properties of formation The formation is a typical turbiditic formation (petroleum source rock properties, reservoir rock ).

17. PETROLEUM RESERVOIR ROCK PROPERTIES OF GUNEY FORMATION Diagenetic evaluation of Guney Formation

18. The diagenesis processes on the Guney formation sandstones were observed lithification and authigenesis.

19. Results  Guney Formation sandstone grains showed less-angular roundness and medium-worse sorting properties  Porosity-permeability values were affected negatively by worse sorting and less- angular roundness  Pore spaces in the sandstones were reduced by  clay cement,  ferric-oxides cement,  altered rock fragments and  recryctalization of quartz minerals  Although the results of porosity-permeability analyses show Guney formation has worse reservoir rock properties, the sandstones samples taken from canal fillings in the study area indicate medium-well petroleum reservoir properties due to have high porosity-permeability values.  According to petrographic examinations and the porosity-permeability analyses, the Guney formation shows worse petroleum reservoir properties.
