ROCK PROPERTIES
RESERVOIR
porous geological formation
pore space water+HC
eg: limestone, sandstone, dolomite
behavior determined by
gravitational force (density)
capillary force (fluid climb up surface)
requires a porous media
Tests
routine core analysis
Poro, Permea, saturation
special tests
press, wettability,tension
POROSITY
ratio of pore space:bulk volume
good reser. :15-20% poro. Poor: 5-10%
Types
Primary (deposition)
Secondary (changes: faults, fracture, cement)
Cal.
HC porosity
Total/absolute poro
Effective Poro
only inter-connected pore (not incl. trapped pore)
Influenced by
large grain size/shape/ narrow dist. (same size grains) (inc.)
sorting & angularity packing (inc.)
compaction (press, depth) decre.
chemical sol (decrease), fracturing (inc.)
Measured by
core scale
effective poro: fluid inject, extract mass
weight method
Helium Porosimeter (press)
log
>difficult,$$$, usually run to measure many properties at once
Production performance
data from reser. production over years
define rock ability to store fluid, void fraction
produce ISO-POROSITY map of reser.
CONSOLIDATED (lose grain) vs. UNCONSOLIDATED (cement/chemical stick rock together)
Gravel, sand, silt, clay vs. basalt, shale, lime/sandstone
FLUID SATURATION
fraction of pore vol. occupied by that fluid
during production S(oil/gas) decr., S(water) inc.
PEMEABILITY - HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY
absolute permea
capacity to transport fluid through pores
large regular grains (decr. SA, friction) inc. pemea
exist of another phase, clay/cement form. decr. pemea
fracture readily incr. pemea
KLINKENBERG effect variate pemea
CONVENTIONAL (sandstone->gravel)
UNCONVENTIONAL (shale)
PARAMETERS
Average velocity (discharge Q)
Interstitial velocity (linear v or pore v)
Hydraulic gradient: ratio change height:length of sand pack
Potential gradient: ratio change poro: length of sand pack
measured by: Core flood test (inject fluid), well test (cal. from flow, press)
a rock property independent of position within porous medium
HOMOGENOUS medium
a rock property independent of direction within porous medium
ISOTROPIC medium
a rock property vary at a point of porous medium
ANISOTROPIC medium
COMPRESSIBILITY
change in vol. (rock, pore, fluid) in press
during production: press decr.- rock bulk vol. decr.- grains expand -pore vol. decr. (poro)
Formation compressibility
equal to pore compressibility
RESISTIVITY
electrical properties
depend on void, fluid type, salinity, temp, poro, pore geometry, form. stress, rock composition
