Scientific Publication by the Department of Earth Sciences in a Scopus-Indexed Journal

The Department of Earth Sciences at the Faculty of Science has achieved a new scientific accomplishment, adding to its record of active research output. Dr Mohammed S. Gumati, a faculty member in the department, has published a scientific research paper entitled:

“Probabilistic Approach Using Rock Physics Characteristics and Petrophysical Modelling to Predict Carbonate Reservoir Properties: A Case Study From the Beda Field, Amin High, Sirt Basin, Libya”

The paper was published in the Geological Journal, an international peer-reviewed journal published by Wiley and indexed in Scopus within the second quartile (Q2). This reflects the quality and scientific value of the research in the fields of Earth sciences and petroleum reservoir studies.

The study applied an integrated probabilistic approach using rock physics characteristics and petrophysical modelling to predict carbonate reservoir properties. It focused on the Beda Field, located in the Amin High area of the Sirt Basin, one of Libya’s key petroleum basins.

The research contributes to a deeper understanding of carbonate reservoir characteristics and supports exploration and development activities in the oil and gas sector.

This publication comes as part of the efforts of faculty members at the Faculty of Science to advance research output and publish in reputable scientific journals, supporting the academic standing of the University of Benghazi and contributing to scientific research and sustainable development.
