Quantification of Sublog Heterogeneities and Implication for Optimizing Well Injectivity - Example of a Carbonate Nodular Fabric

Abstract

Summary We present how a comprehensive geological study helped in the understanding the distribution of the heterogeneity in the example of a nodular facies. The result of an in-house workflow based on core CT-scan information provided quantification of the heterogeneities. These results are used to show that oil can still flow, even when logs indicate high water saturation values. The results anticipated by the method were confirmed by well tests.
