【 摘 要 】

Permeability and porosity are the most difficult parameters to estimate in the oil reservoir because they are varying significantly over the reservoir, especially in the carbonate formation. Porosity and permeability can only be sampled at the well location. However, porosity is easy to estimate directly from well log data, permeability is not. In addition, permeability measurements from core samples are very expensive. Carbonate reservoirs are very difficult to characterize because of their tendency to be tight and heterogeneous due to deposition and diagenetic processes. Therefore, many engineers and geologists try to establish methods to get the best characterization for the carbonate reservoir. In this study, available routine core data from three wells are used to develop permeability model based on hydraulic flow unit method (HFUM) (RQI/FZI) for cretaceous carbonate middle reservoirs of Bai Hassan oil field. The results show that the HFUM is work perfectly to characterize and predict permeability for uncored wells because R2 ≥ 0.9. It is indicating that permeability can be accurately predicted from porosity if rock type is known.
