Hi Jof,
"how does the thickness of a zone of interest translate as net pay?"
Defined like this mate, " 'net pay' comes from the definition of a 'pay zone' in a hydrocarbon reservoir. That pay zone will be volume of a reservoir/trap with oil, when taking into account variations in porosity and compartments of various kinds in a reservoir. In addition, oil and gas can be mixed (GOR) so that you start producing gas (and sometimes water) before you expect it...thus the difficulty in estimating a net pay when we first start production."
We all keep learning JH. Hope this helps
