Abstract
Calculating hydrocarbon reserves in a reservoir sequence where the pro ductive sands range from decinletres to only millimetres in thickness is very difficult using conventional downhole logging and core analysis methods. Petrographic inlage analysis (PIA) can be used to determine certain petrophysical parameters within these sands leading to more realistic estimations of both total and recoverable reserves. Prelinlinary results from PIA analysis of twenty-four (24) samples from the Malay Basin are included to demonstrate how this new technology can inlprove reserves calculations.
