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...

The main purpose of this investigation is to study the effect of near miscible CO2 injection in different porous mediums on both lab and field scales. This effect can be traced by the change of two-phase gas-oil relative permeability curves. In this work, the experiments have been performed on three rock types (i.e. sandstone, dolomite, and artificial fractured sandstone) based on an incrementa...

the chemical surfactant flooding can mobilize the trapped oil by lowering the interfacial tension between oil and brine and in some cases altering the reservoir rock wettability. in this work, the effect of surfactants on oil/brine interfacial tension was experimentally investigated. first, the effect of surfactants concentration was surveyed. afterwards, the effect of salinity on surfactant be...

Rock typing is known as the best way in heterogeneous reservoirs characterization. The rock typing methods confine to various aspects of the rocks such as multi-scale and multi-modal pore types and size, rock texture, diagenetic modifications and integration of static/dynamic data. Integration of static and dynamic behavior of rocks and their sedimentary features are practiced in this study. Po...

electro-facies is a unit of the vertical sediments sequence on the wire-line logs that can be differentiated from the upper and lower units. for detection of the electro-facies interval in kangan and upper dalan formations in south pars gas field, wire-line log and core data analysis (wells a, b, c and d) were used. note, only core data analysis in well a were available. first, thin-sections st...

In deepwater-reservoir modeling, the proper representation of the spatial distribution of architectural elements is important to account for pore-volume distribution and the connectivity of reservoir sand bodies. This is especially critical for rock and fluid-volume estimates, reservoir-performance predictions, and development-well planning. A new integrated stochastic reservoir-modeling approa...

Natural reservoirs exhibit high degree of spatial variability in their properties in multiple length scales. It has been established that such variability has a strong impact in determining fluid flow patterns in subsurface formations. Direct measurements of reservoir properties are only available at a small number of locations. Without an adequate description of the formation properties, such ...
