An outline of the full length Capillary Pressure and Saturation-Height
Interpretation training course follows. This course would normally take
a relaxed 3 days, or an intensive 2 days.
Note that this course is fully customisable to suit client requirements.
What is Capillary Pressure?
• Why does it matter?
• Pore Throat Size controlled
• Interfacial tension
• Contact Angle
• Basic Formulae
Drainage & Imbibition
Contacts - FWL, OWC/GWC, FOL, GOC
Relative Permeability
Residual Hydrocarbons
Capillary Pressure Measurement
• What types of measurement are there?
• Which Measurements to take?
• Sample preparation
IFT and contact angle, wettability
Sample Selection
How to Work the Data
• Software
• Data collation
• Formats
• Corrections
• Quality Control
• Comparing Different Measurement Types
• Pressure to Height Conversion
• Common functions to Fit Cap. Curves
• Combining Multiple Cap. Curves
• Uncertainty
Practical Implementation
• Implementation in Petrophysical Modelling
• Reconciliation with Log Evaluation
• Implementation in Reservoir Models
• Unusual cases
Dynamic aquifers
Implementation in Modelling
