Title: Integrated reservoir assessment and characterization: Final report, October 1, 1985--September 30, 1988

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6212705· OSTI ID:6212705

This report covers the development of a generic approach to reservoir characterization, the preliminary studies leading to the selection of an appropriate depositional system for detailed study, the application of outcrop studies to quantified reservoir characterization, and the construction of a quantified geological/engineering model used to screen the effects and scales of various geological heterogeneities within a reservoir. These heterogeneities result in large production/residual oil saturation contrasts over small distances. 36 refs., 124 figs., 38 tabs.
