Porosity and Permeability Determinations in Sandstone and Limestone Rocks Using Thin Section Analysis Approach
Iscan, A. G.; Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2009-01-01)
In this study, porosity and permeability values of six different rock samples (three limestone and three sandstone) were determined using thin section analysis technique. The parameters were determined by applying capillary pressure approach through digitally scanned microscopic images. The existence of steam and liquid water in the reservoir make the capillary pressure approach more accurate for the determination of rock properties. The geothermal gradient may also participate in this approach, since the p...
Pore network modeling of two phase flow in vuggy carbonates
Akın, Serhat; Erzeybek, S. (2008-01-01)
Carbonate reservoirs have more complex structures than silicate reservoirs because of depositional and diagenetic features. Secondary porosity enhancements due to fracturing or dissolution processes result complex porosity systems and thus complex flow patterns. Carbonates may contain not only matrix and fracture but also the vugs and cavities that are irregular in shape and vary in size from millimeters to centimeters in diameter. Although many of these vugs appear to be isolated from fractures, the mechan...

Pore network modeling of fissured and vuggy carbonates
Erzeybek, Selin; Akın, Serhat; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2008)
Carbonate rocks contain most of the world’s proven hydrocarbon reserves. It is essential to predict flow properties and understand flow mechanisms in carbonates for estimating hydrocarbon recovery accurately. Pore network modeling is an effective tool in determination of flow properties and investigation of flow mechanisms. Topologically equivalent pore network models yield accurate results for flow properties. Due to their simple pore structure, sandstones are generally considered in pore scale studies and...
Pore-size distribution characteristics and durability of the Cappadocian tuff
Topal, Tamer; Dupas, M (1998-09-25)
The Cappadocia region of Central Anatolia is characterized by fairy chimneys. They are formed within ash-flow tuffs. Some of the fairy chimneys were dwelled and contain invaluable wall paintings. Weathering and erosion, however, are still active and the chimneys are undergoing chemical and physical deterioration due to atmospheric effects. In order to understand the mechanisms of deterioration of the tuff, various physico-mechanical properties as well as pore-size distribution characteristics of the tuff be...
