Utilization of percolation approach to evaluate reservoir connectivity and effective permeability: A case study on North Pars gas field
, Article Scientia Iranica ; Vol. 18, issue. 6 , December , 2011 , p. 1391-1396 ; ISSN: 10263098 ; Masihi, M ; Pishvaie, M ; Shojaei, A ; King, P. R ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
Reservoir characterization, especially during early stages of reservoir life, is very uncertain, due to the scarcity of data. Reservoir connectivity and permeability evaluation is of great importance in reservoir characterization. The conventional approach to addressing this is computationally very expensive and time consuming. Therefore, there is a great incentive to produce much simpler alternative methods. In this paper, we use a statistical approach called the percolation theory, which considers a hypothesis wherein the reservoir can be split into either permeable (i.e. sand/fracture) or impermeable flow units (i.e. shale/matrix), and assumes that the connectivity of permeability...
