PEEG 218 Reservoir Rock Properties

Theoretical introduction to basic rock properties and their core-based measurements determined by conventional and special core analysis. It discusses how to obtain reliable core analysis data focusing on porosity, permeability, Darcy’s law with applications/limitations, saturations, wettability, capillary pressure, relative permeability, resistivity, compressibility, and the effect of stresses on rock mechanical properties.
