Abstract

Hamrin oil field is one of the important oil fields in northern Iraq .The field represent an anticline that extend NW-SE for more than 101 km, with width (4-7)km,(Al-Naqib,1959). Hamrin oil field located at the south western boundary of foot hill zone of the unstable shelf area according to the tectonic division of Iraq. Jeribe formation is an attractive petroleum completion target in most of northern oil field of Iraq. The main aim of this study is determine the petro physical properties of this formation, because these properties affect the estimate of reserves (porosity and saturation) and well deliverability(permeability). This study shows that the petro physical properties are controlled by depositional environment, digenesis and tectonic process as well as the depositional environment of Jeribe formation. The evaluation of petrophysical properties of Jeribe formation in Hamrin oil field was necessary to choose the best interval for well completion.
