We use a multi-resolution analysis based on a wavelet transform to upscale a 3D fractured reservoir. This paper describes a 3D, single-phase, and black-oil geological model (GM) that is used to simulate naturally-fractured reservoirs. The absolute permeability and porosity of GM is upscaled by all the possible combinations of Haar, Bior1.3, and Db4 wavelets in three levels of coarsening. The ap...

Wettability is a pore-scale property that impacts the relative movement and distribution of fluids in porous medium. There are reservoir provoke surface within pores to undergo wettability change. This change, turn, alters dynamics permeabilities at Darcy scale. Thus, modeling impact change essential understand interaction media. In this study, we include time-dependent into permeability–satura...

Petro physics, rock physics and multi-attribute analysis have been employed in an integrated approach to delineate porosity variation across Tamag Field of Niger Delta Basin. Gamma and resistivity logs were employed to identify sand bodies and correlated across the field. Petro physical analysis was undertaken. Rock physics modelling and multi-attribute analysis were carried out. Two hydrocarbo...

permeability prediction problem has been examined using several methods such as empirical formulas, regression analysis and intelligent systems especially neural networks and fuzzy logic. this study proposes an improved and novel model for predicting permeability from conventional well log data. the methodology is integration of empirical formulas, multiple regression and neuro-fuzzy in a commi...

Heterogeneity of permeability is an important factor affecting the production of a carbonate reservoir. How to correctly characterize the heterogeneity of permeability has become a key issue for carbonate reservoir development. In this study, the reservoirs were categorized into four superimposed modes based on the actual logging data from a super-giant heterogeneous carbonate reservoir in the ...

Abstract Hydraulic fracturing is the most efficient method to exploit valued geothermal energy trapped in low-permeable hard rock, e.g. granite. Most research on hydraulic has focused its application shale gas and oil. However, performs differently reservoir, as rock properties are quite different. In this work, an anisotropic damage–permeability model developed fundament of continuum theory st...

Rock typing is an essential part of building geological model for an asset. Millions of dollars are invested in logs, core measurements, SCAL studies and geological interpretation that result in definition of different rock types. In most caes rock types that are identified in a reservoir do not have crisp boundaries and display overlapping characteristics. During the upscaling process, multipl...

Transient ow analyses have numerous geophysical and geotechnical applications and they are necessary for the understanding and development of laboratory measurement techniques in rock and soil mechanics, particularly in the determination of the permeability of substances. In this paper, we formulate a Genetic Algorithm inversion technique for the retrieval of homogeneous or spacewise dependent ...
