New reservoir characterization methods are needed to integrate multiscale exploration and development data, particularly at the interface between well and field models. In this paper, we illustrate a novel workflow involving high-resolution near-wellbore modeling... read more

The major challenge in reservoir characterization is to estimate the effective porosity and the permeability of the reservoir due to reservoir heterogeneity. Often the vertical and the horizontal permeability are not considered separately in 3D geo-cellular models and... read more

Permeability is very difficult to estimate, mainly because it is very scale- and direction dependent. For instance, from permeability measured in core plugs to permeability estimated from well tests, there is a big difference in scale. How to compare these correct and... read more

Water saturation in reservoir rocks is highly dependent on petrophysical parameters as permeability, porosity and the amount of clay and shale in the sandstone. Saturations are important for static hydrocarbon volumes and for saturation-dependent flow parameters, such... read more

Two techniques of preprocessing data from core plugs have been investigated to enhance the quality of synthetic permeability estimation from conventional logs by use of artificial neural networks (ANNs). A first technique consists of “cleaning” the core-plug data set... read more
