Reservoir quality indicators can be derived from the analysis of high-resolution dipmeter records. Changes in the aspect of the dipmeter curves respond primarily to changes in rock texture and sedimentary structure; their analysis can be instrumental in describing the petrophysical and reservoir properties of the formations. A four-step methodology has been set up: (1) extract dipmeter curve attributes, (2) combine dipmeter-derived data with other logs, (3) compare with core data over key intervals, and (4) extrapolate to other intervals and other wells. This approach is illustrated here by three examples.
