Two-dimensional (2D) NMR techniques have been proposed as efficient methods to infer a variety of petrophysical parameters, including mixed fluid saturation, in-situ oil viscosity, wettability, and pore structure. However, no study has been presented to quantify the petrophysical limitations of such methods. We address this problem by introducing a pore-scale framework to accurately simulate su...

Petrophysical heterogeneity in the South Wasson Clear Fork (SWCF) reservoir and other shallow-water platform carbonates in the Permian Basin and elsewhere is composed of a large-scale stratigraphically controlled component and a small-scale poorly correlated component. The large-scale variability exists as a flow-unit scale petrophysical layering that is laterally persistent at interwell scales...

[1] We develop a state-space Bayesian framework to combine time-lapse geophysical data with other types of information for quantitative estimation of biogeochemical parameters during bioremediation. We consider characteristics of end products of biogeochemical transformations as state vectors, which evolve under constraints of local environments through evolution equations, and consider time-la...

Analysis of heterogeneous gas sand reservoirs is one of the most difficult problems. These reservoirs usually produce from multiple layers with different permeability and complex formation, which is often enhanced by natural fracturing. Therefore, using new well logging techniques like NMR or a combination of NMR and conventional openhole logs, as well as developing new interpretation methodolo...
