Abstract
Summary
This paper presents a model to estimate permeability from well logs in carbonate reservoirs. The model relates permeability to interparticle porosity, makes special accommodation for separatevug porosity, and includes a rock-fabric classification scheme with an important dual petrophysical-geological significance. The dual significance of the rock-fabric classification provides an important link to geological models for use in distributing permeabilities between wells. Porosity and permeability are highly variable and are difficult to predict spatially in most carbonate reservoirs, but rock-fabric changes tend to be organized systematically within a sequence stratigraphic framework.
