If we scale phase permeability w.r.t. absolute water permeability (i.e. =), we get an endpoint parameter for both oil and water relative permeability. If we scale phase permeability w.r.t. oil permeability with irreducible water saturation present, K r o w {\displaystyle K_{\mathit {row}}} endpoint is one, and we are left with only the K r w ...
Craig [1] proposed three rules of thumb for interpretation of wettability from relative permeability curves. These rules are based on the value of interstitial water saturation, the water saturation at the crossover point of relative permeability curves (i.e., where relative permeabilities are equal to each other), and the normalized water permeability at residual oil saturation (i.e ...
Also, TEM-function can be used for averaging relative permeability curves (for each fluid phase separately, i.e., water, oil, gas, CO 2). [1]

The concept of permeability is of importance in determining the flow characteristics of hydrocarbons in oil and gas reservoirs, [4] and of groundwater in aquifers. [5]For a rock to be considered as an exploitable hydrocarbon reservoir without stimulation, its permeability must be greater than approximately 100 md (depending on the nature of the hydrocarbon – gas reservoirs with lower ...
The organization, led by Saudi Arabia, has voluntarily reduced oil output since mid-2023 in a bid to boost prices. Despite their efforts, Brent crude, the international benchmark, is down over 12% ...
Oil prices have been in focus recently for drivers and the Fed. With a new bout of violence in the Middle East, market observers are keeping close tabs on any effects to energy markets.
Correlating relative permeability. The simulation model computes the saturation change of three phases (oil, water and gas) and the pressure of each phase in each cell at each time step. As a result of declining pressure as in a reservoir depletion study, gas will be liberated from the oil.
