Abstract:

Calculating the initial water saturation of heterogeneous carbonate reservoirs is always a challenge to log interpretation, especially under the condition of lack of data such as sealed core which can directly determine the water saturation. Taking an oilfield in the Middle East as an example, according to the data of capillary pressure curve, physical properties analysis and RFT test, this paper discussed J-function method that uses capillary pressure curve to calculate initial water saturation of heterogeneous carbonate reservoirs. The water saturation calculated by this method agrees quite well with that interpreted by relative permeability experiment data and oil test results. This study provides a reasonable and reliable method to ensure water saturation of heterogeneous carbonate with no water saturation of cores.
