Formation fluid data based on measurements taken downhole under natural conditions is utilized to help identify reservoir compartments. A geological model of the reservoir including expected pressure and temperature conditions is integrated with a predicted fluid model fitted to measured composition and PVT data on reservoir fluid samples or representative analog. Synthetic downhole fluid analysis (DFA) logs created from the predictive fluid model can be displayed along the proposed borehole trajectory by geological modeling software prior to data acquisition. During a downhole fluid sampling operation, actual measurements can be displayed next to the predicted logs. If agreement exists between the predicted and measured fluid samples, the geologic and fluid models are validated. However, if there is a discrepancy between the predicted and measured fluid samples, the geological model and the fluid model need to be re-analyzed, e.g., to identify reservoir fluid compartments. A quantitative comparative analysis of the sampled fluids can be performed against other samples in the same borehole or in different boreholes in the field or region to calculate the statistical similarity of the fluids, and thus the possible connectivity between two or more reservoir regions.
