Diagenesis and petrophysical characteristics of the shallow Pliocene sandstone reservoirs in the Shinfas Gas Field, onshore Nile Delta, Egypt

Abstract The Pliocene Kafr El-Sheikh (KES) Formation in the onshore Nile Delta region hosts numerous shallow gas accumulations. These are readily detected on seismic profiles by definable direct hydrocarbon indicators (DHI). However, the presence of residual gases causes many production failures. Tw...
