Abstract

Pore channels distribution in reservoir by size largely determines such filtration parameters as absolute and phase permeability, as well as the residual oil saturation of the productive reservoir. This paper presents a technique for capillary research data digital processing in order to obtain a function graph of reservoir pore channels by size distribution. In this case, a generalized mathematical model of capillary pressure curves is used. The generalized model makes it possible to increase the accuracy of capillary curves approximation in the medium and small pore channels area. In this regard, the proposed digital processing technique makes it possible to increase the accuracy and efficiency of constructing the pore channel size distribution function. Keywords: pore channels; distribution density; permeability; oil saturation; digital processing technique.
