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 ...

  Application of Archie equation in carbonate reservoirs is not easy due to high dependence of its parameters on carbonate characteristics. Carbonates are very heterogeneous in nature and hydrocarbon reserve estimation in these reservoirs of mostly oil-wet and intermediate-wet is highly influenced by the input values of saturation exponent. To our knowledge, non representative oils have been us...

This article presents a method for simulation of continuous and discrete fracture parameters distributions in hydrocarbon reservoirs using Sequential Indicator Simulation (SIS) and Sequential Gaussian Simulation (SGS) methods. Fracture parameters including azimuth, dip and density are integrated with the porosity and permeability values determined in the models. Based on this study we have iden...

Decline curve analysis has some advantages over transient well test analysis in which it is not required to shut-in the well and also wellbore storage effects do not exist. Few studies have been done on decline curve analysis of naturally fractured reservoirs but there are even some limitations with available models. On the other hand well test could be expensive and in some operational conditi...

In this research the experimental and theoretical studies on different Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques, i.e. Water Flooding (WF), Gas Injection (GI) and Water Alternating Gas process (WAG) were performed on specimens taken from an Iranian carbonate offshore reservoir at the reservoir condition. The experimental results for each specified techniques were compared with the correspondin...

The work is devoted to the determination of reservoir properties carbonate rocks, using new modern GIW methods (geophysical investigations wells). main approaches that determine physical and mechanical (PHMP) acoustic anisotropy rocks associated with cavernosity fracturing, as well permeability characteristics field productivity, formations, liquids gases saturating productive horizons are spec...
