Abstract

The aim of this study is to demonstrate petroleum reservoir rock properties of Guney formation in Eregli-Ulukisla Basin in Turkey. The Guney formation has typical outcrops of sandstone-shale formation around Guney village in the Eregli- Ulukisla Basin. The permeability-porosity analyses and petrographic examinations were done on the 58 sandstone samples which were compiled from the study area. The porosity values change from 6.44 % to 35.14%, and the permeability values change from 0.2 md to 32 md. The sandstones are medium-worse rounded and poorly sorted according to the petrographic examinations. The porosity-permeability values of samples taken from channel fillings on the study area are high. According to the petrographic examination and porosity-permeability analyses results, The Guney formation represents generally worsemedium grade petroleum reservoir rock properties.
