Relative Permeability Of Petroleum Reservoirs

This book enables petroleum reservoir engineers to predict the flow of fluids within a hydrocarbon deposit. Laboratory techniques are described for both steady-state and unsteady state measurements and the calculation of relative permeability from field data is illustrated. A discussion of techniques for determing wettability is included along with theoretical and empirical methods for the calculation of relative permeability and prediction techniques. Contents include: Measurement of Rock Relative Permeability; Two-Phase Relative Permeability; Factors Affecting Two-Phase Relative Permeability; Three-Phase Relative Permeability; and Index.
