Well E pressure vs. depth x plot. from small diameter logging tools range from routine triple combo data to resistivity imaging and formation pressure data. The logging tools that acquire this data are sufficiently slim, short, and lightweight and can be efficiently conveyed by an extensive range of conveyance techniques into a wide variety of wellbore environments.

BIOGRAPHIES Izuchukwu “Izu” Ariwodo works in the Reservoir Description Division as a Gas Development Petrophysicist. He started his career over 18 years ago when he began working as a Petroleum Engineer with Shell EP. While there, Izu also worked as an Operational Petrophysicist, Studies Petrophysicist and also as a Special Studies Geophysicist. Prior to joining Saudi Aramco in 2006, he was the Team Leader for Petrophysics in the deepwater Niger Delta. Izu received his B.Eng. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Federal University of Technology, Owerri, Nigeria, in 1987, and his M.S. degree in Industrial Engineering from the University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Western Nigeria, in 1990. Ali R. Al-Belowi is currently the Supervisor for the North ‘Uthmaniyah Unit, in the Southern Area Reservoir Management Department (SARMD). His previous posting was as Supervisor of the ‘Udhailiyah Area Petrophysics in the Reservoir Description and Simulation Department, where he was responsible for ensuring that quality production and open hole logs were timely analyzed, while utilizing the most accurate and complete petrophysics methods. Ali has done extensive work on petrophysics analysis in both exploration and development fields. He joined Saudi Aramco in August 1989 as a Petroleum Engineer after receiving his B.S. degree in Petroleum Engineering from King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Rami H. BinNasser is a Lead Petrophysicist and Supervisor of the Special Studies Unit in the Reservoir Description and Simulation Department. As such, he sets the future direction for petrophysics by evaluating new logging and data processing technologies to improve formation evaluation. Rami has also had several assignments in the Gas & Exploration Unit, and as a Production Engineer and Reservoir Management Engineer. Before joining Saudi Aramco, Rami worked as a Wireline Logging Engineer with Schlumberger and Baker Atlas in the United Kingdom, India, Oman and Saudi Arabia. In 1995, Rami received his B.S. degree in Engineering from King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM), Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. Robert S. Kuchinski is the Weatherford Wireline Business Development Manager for the Middle East - North Africa region. He has been located in Dubai for the past 3½ years. Robert has been involved in the acquisition of subsurface data since 1976. During this period he has worked as a Geologist in both the mining and petroleum businesses in Western Canada. In 1986 Robert joined Reeves Wireline where he worked in various roles including technical sales, sales management, and was Senior Vice President. He played a key role in the development of the compact technology, which was acquired by Weatherford in 2005. In 1979, Robert received his B.S. degree in Geology from the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, and in 2003 he received a certificate in Business Management from the University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Robert is a registered professional Geologist in the province of Alberta, Canada. Ibrahim A. Zainaddin is the Weatherford Wireline Operation Manager for Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Kuwait. He has been located in al- Khobar, Saudi Arabia, for the past 3 years in his current role. In 2006, Ibrahim joined Weatherford Wireline as the Wireline Project Manager, working in technical sales and sales management. He played a key role in the introduction of the compact technology in Saudi Arabia. Ibrahim has over 14 years of engineering experience working for several multinational companies. In 1994, he received his B.S. degree in Applied Electrical Engineering from King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM), Dhahran, Saudi Arabia.
