Relative Permeability Measurement in Rock Fractures
The petroleum industry always requires precise measurement of relative permeability. When it comes to the fractures, the measurement becomes extremely difficult since the saturation in the fractures is hard to calculate. In this study, we are aiming to provide a machine learning approach to distinguish voxel-based water and gas in rock fractures based on Computed Tomography. This research is di...
متن کاملExperimental Study of Foam Flooding in Low Permeability Sandstones: Effects of Rock Permeability and Microscopic Heterogeneity
Foam flooding (or injection of foam) is a common technology to enhance oil recovery. Although the effects of permeability on foam flooding were well studied in many laboratory experiments, little research has been focused on the specificity of low permeability. In this paper, a series of constant-quality nitrogen foam flow experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of permeability on...
متن کاملPermeability 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 کاملGas-liquid Relative Permeability Estimation in 2D Porous Media by Lattice Boltzmann Method: Low Viscosity Ratio 2D LBM Relative Permeability
This work is a primary achievement in studying the CO2 and N2–oil systems. To predict gas-liquid relative permeability curves, a Shan-Chen type multicomponent multiphase lattice Boltzmann model for two-phase flow through 2D porous media is developed. Periodic and bounce back boundary conditions are applied to the model with the Guo scheme for the external body force (i.e.,...
متن کاملEffective parameterizations of three nonwetting phase relative permeability models
Describing convective nonwetting phase flow in unsaturated porous media requires knowledge of the nonwetting phase relative permeability. This study was conducted to formulate and derive a generalized expression for the nonwetting phase relative permeability via combining with the Kosugi water retention function. This generalized formulation is then used to flexibly investigate the Burdine, Mua...
