Reservoir Rock Typing for Permeability Prediction & Capillary Pressure for Saturation Height Modeling
This course provides a detailed understanding of how reservoir rock typing, permeability prediction, and capillary pressure analysis contribute to accurate reservoir characterization and saturation height modeling. Participants will learn how to integrate core, log, and laboratory data to enhance reservoir modeling and hydrocarbon-in-place estimation.
Description
Accurate reservoir characterization requires understanding the relationship between rock properties and fluid behavior. The Reservoir Rock Typing for Permeability Prediction & Capillary Pressure for Saturation Height Modeling course focuses on identifying rock types based on geological and petrophysical characteristics and their impact on permeability and capillary pressure trends.
Participants will gain in-depth knowledge of how rock typing supports static and dynamic reservoir models, improves permeability prediction in non-cored intervals, and refines hydrocarbon saturation distribution. The course covers methods for developing saturation height functions using capillary pressure data and demonstrates how to apply these models in field-scale reservoir studies.
Practical examples and case studies are used to demonstrate data integration workflows, from core analysis to log interpretation and modeling, ensuring participants can directly apply the knowledge to real reservoir challenges.
Reservoir rock typing and capillary pressure interpretation are essential tools for translating geological variability into meaningful reservoir flow properties. Understanding how different rock types control permeability and fluid distribution enables engineers and geoscientists to make better predictions of reservoir quality and performance.
This course provides a hands-on learning experience in classifying reservoir rocks, developing permeability models, and constructing saturation height functions. It bridges geological, petrophysical, and engineering perspectives, enabling participants to create more reliable reservoir models and improve hydrocarbon volume estimations.
