Fractal Characterization of The Geysers Rock
Fractures play an important role in steam production from geothermal reservoirs. It has been a challenge for a long time to characterize materials with a high density of fractures such as The Geysers rock. Experimental data showed that the capillary pressure curves of The Geysers rock are very different from that of Berea sandstone. Methods to characterize the difference between the two have be...
متن کاملFractal-wavelet-fusion-based re-ranking of joint roughness coefficients
Nowadays, Barton’s Joint Roughness Coefficients (JRC) are widely used as the index for roughness and as a challenging fracture property. When JRC ranking is the goal, deriving JRC from different fractal/wavelet procedures can be conflicting. Complexity increases when various rankings outcome from different calculation methods. Therefore, using Barton’s JRC, we cannot make a decision based on th...
متن کاملFractal rock slope dynamics anticipating a collapse.
Time series of dilatometric measurements of relative displacements on rock cracks on stable and unstable sandstone slopes were analyzed. The inherent dynamics of rock slopes lack any significant nonlinearity. However, the residuals obtained by removing meteorological influences are fat-tailed non-Gaussian fluctuations, with short-range correlations in the case of stable slopes. The fluctuations...
متن کاملFractal Joint Signatures
Measures of many geophysical phenomena are fractal. One of these is fracture spacing along a rock face. For the most part, the only parameter that has been extracted from such a fractal data set is its dimension. However, fractals which are strictly self-similar can be succinctly described mathematically as an Iterated Function System (IFS). In this case the parameters of the functions of an IF...
متن کاملReservoir Rock Characterization Using Wavelet Transform and Fractal Dimension
The aim of this study is to characterize and find the location of geological boundaries in different wells across a reservoir. Automatic detection of the geological boundaries can facilitate the matching of the stratigraphic layers in a reservoir and finally can lead to a correct reservoir rock characterization. Nowadays, the well-to-well correlation with the aim of finding the geological l...
