description Abstract Integration of structural and horizon mapping of 3D seismic volume, petrophysical studies of over sixty (60) wireline logs, stratigraphic analyses, reservoir property modeling and production information have been adopted to study Eni field that has been experiencing production decline with increase in water output. Generated reservoir structural framework and spatial reservoir property distribution have proved useful to guide the optimal placement of proposed wells and also provide information needful for the development of best production plan that would guarantee effective oil drainage from the delineated reservoir compartments.
