The Globigerina Limestone (GL) is the main reservoir of the seven gas fields that will be developed in the Madura Strait Block. The GL is a heterogeneous and unique clastic carbonate. However, the understanding of reservoir rock type of this reservoir are quite limited. Rock type definition in heterogeneous GL is very important aspect for reservoir modeling and will influences field development strategy. Rock type analysis in this study is using integration of core data, wireline logs and formation test data. Rock type determination applies porosity and permeability relationship approach from core data, which related to pore size distribution, lithofacies, and diagenesis. The analysis resulted eight rock types in the Globigerina Limestone reservoir. Result suggests that rock type definition is strongly influenced by lithofacies, which is dominated by packstone and wackestone - packstone. The diagenetic process in the deep burial environment causes decreasing of reservoir quality. Then the diagenesis process turns to be shallower in marine phreatic zone and causes dissolution which increasing the reservoir quality. Moreover, the analysis of rock type properties consist of clay volume, porosity, permeability, and water saturation. The good quality of a rock type will have the higher the porosity and permeability. The dominant rock type in this study area is RT4, which is identical to packstone lithofasies that has 0.40 v/v porosity and 5.2 mD as average permeability. The packstone litofacies could be found in RT 5, 6, 7, even 8 due to the increased of secondary porosity. It could also be found at a lower RT which is caused by intensive cementation.
