Permeability and Relative Permeability in Rocks
Important features of the topology of the pore space of rocks can be usefully quantiied by analyzing digitized images of rock cross sections. One approach computes statistical correlation functions using modern image processing techniques. These correlation functions contain information about porosity, speciic surface area, tortuosity, formation factor, and elastic constants, as well as the uid...
متن کاملCharacterization of Bitumen Bearing Carbonate Rocks
Several countries, including Canada, contain sizeable bitumen resources in highly fractured carbonate rocks. Any possible recovery of bitumen from these reservoirs will be highly dependent on proper understanding of the rock and fluid properties and how they vary in the reservoir. These carbonates are extremely heterogeneous, and as a result proper reservoir characterization is challenging. In ...
متن کاملX-Ray in-situ saturation monitoring, an aid to study relative permeability in water-wet carbonate rocks
The simultaneous flow of oil and water in porous media is described by relative permeability curves, mainly derived from laboratory experiments. Relative permeability is of paramount importance in predicting reservoir production performance and drive mechanisms and its value depends largely on the volume fraction of fluids present in the test samples. Nowadays X-ray scanners are one of the most...
متن کاملexperimental study of two phase relative permeability in iranian carbonate rocks
in this paper, the effect of flow rate on relative permeability curves was investigated in iranian carbonate rocks. core samples were prepared from outcrop of asmari formation. the dynamic displacement experiments were performed at 2.55, 3.55, 4.55 and 5.55 cc/hr during waterflooding and oilflooding. relative permeabilities have been calculated with the jones and roszelle method and then the fl...
متن کاملThin Sections Images Processing Technique for the Porosity Estimation in Carbonate Rocks
In present paper we used program Cluster Image which was created in Java to process thin section image of carbonate rock to estimate its porosity on image of any format and with a strong color contrast between the mineral part and pores in thin sections under polarized light. For the experiment the images of thin sections of carbonate rocks of the Carboniferous age were used. Cluster Image does...
