Carbonate reservoirs rock typing plays a pivotal role in the construction of reservoir static models and volumetric calculations. The procedure for rock type determination starts with the determination of depositional and diagenetic rock types through petrographic studies of the thin sections prepared from core plugs and cuttings. In the second step of rock typing study, electrofacies are deter...

Researchers at the University of Calgary have developed a novel algorithm to more accurately determine the physical properties of oil reservoirs than widely employed methods such as linear and non-linear regression analysis. By employing a combination of fuzzy ranking and artificial neural networks, Dr. Wang’s group demonstrates that they can accurately model reservoir characteristics such as p...

Abstract Aiming at the high temperature and salinity of Keshen 8 gas reservoir, selective water plugging agent system with resistance, salt resistance permeability was studied. The effect components on performance investigated by single factor experiment, best formula determined. compressive strength material stable about 4.6 MPa, had good resistance. Through physical simulation experiment frac...

The aim of the study is to condition stochastic generated realizations on well test data in order to improve simulation of facies and petrophysics in fluvial reservoirs. First we have used the pressure data to estimate the shortest distance from the well to a possible channel boundary and thereby simulate the channel structures. The well test also provides the permeability average in the part o...

least squares method (lsm) is an accurate and rapid method for solving some analytical andnumerical problems. this method can be used to estimate the average reservoir pressure in well testanalysis. in fact, it may be employed to estimate parameters such as permeability (k) and porevolume (vp). regarding this point, buildup, drawdown, late transient test data, modified muskatmethod, interferenc...

The present study focuses on facies analysis and the reservoir characteristics of the Asmari Formation in the Aghajari oilfield (located in the Zagros fold-thrust belt, southwest Iran), and how they are linked to depositional environments and reservoir characteristics. This formation consists of about 380 m carbonates with some siliciclastic intercalations. Based on the integration of 1200 m of...
