Basin Evaluation of Turonian Deposits in the Lower Congo Basin using outcrops, cores, well-logs and seismic
Abstract
This manuscript presents a review of the Turonian series of the Congolese Coastal Basin using
outcrop, core, well-logs and seismic data in order to provide a comprehensive model for the series
and increase the oil recovery. The objectives of this study were: a)to define the age assignment of
the stratal units, b) to define geographical extension of the series, c) tocharacterize lithologically
Turonian series and define a facies model for the series, d) to determine petrophysical properties
of the Turonian series.
