Zusammenfassung:The present study integrates multidisciplinary geological and petrophysical approaches to characterize and evaluate the potential of the pre-Cenomanian Nubian sandstone reservoirs in the Ramadan oil field, the central offshore part of the Gulf of Suez, Egypt. The different petrophysical parameters of the Nubian sandstone reservoirs (shale volume, porosity, water saturation as well as gross and net-pay thicknesses) were mapped, and 3D slicing models for the hydrocarbon phases saturation were constructed to understand the reservoir heterogeneity and the distribution of the best reservoir facies. The petrophysical results of the pre-Cenomanian Nubian succession highlight very good reservoir intervals in the Nubian C sandstones containing thick pay zones (> 120 m). On the other side, the Nubian A and B reservoir rocks are less prospective with pay zone horizons (
