Advanced Facies Analysis & Rock-typing
Advanced Facies Analysis & Rock-typing

Description: 

This course develops an integrated approach to rock-type determination combining raw logs, interpreted logs from petrophysical evaluation, core description, and laboratory petrophysical data (routine core analysis and special core analysis). It details the quality control and processing which are necessary before the integration of such data. Interpretation techniques allowing a consistent integration of these different sources of data are developed based on probabilistic classification schemes. Various means to ensure the consistency between lithofacies and petrophysical rock-types incorporating SCAL data are discussed. Alternative approaches for rock-type determination based on specific porosity/permeability models are also presented. Eventually it is shown how the full rock-typing scheme is validated through the modeling of initial water saturation.
