The current findings emphasize interpreting wireline logs to assess the hydrocarbon prospect of the Lower Cretaceous Yageliemu Formation in the Yakela (YKL) gas condensate field, Tarim Basin, China. The present study consists of wireline logs of four drilled wells (S4, YK13, YK21, and YK32) and nume...
