Rock & Fluid Properties
PGE 363
By
Dr. Eissa Mohamed Shokir
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Systematic theoretical and laboratory study of
physical properties of petroleum reservoir rocks
• Lithology
• Porosity
• Compressibility
• Permeability
• Fluid saturations
• Capillary characteristics
• Rock stress
• Fluid-rock interaction
Course Objectives
By the last day of class, the student should be able to:
1.
Define porosity; discuss the factors which effect porosity and
describe the methods of determining values of porosity;
2.
Define the coefficient of isothermal compressibility of reservoir
rock and describe methods for determining values of formation
compressibility;
3.
Reproduce the Darcy equation in differential form, explain its
meaning, integrate the equation for typical reservoir systems,
discuss and calculate the effect of fractures and channels, and
describe methods for determining values of absolute
permeability;
Course Objectives
4.
Explain boundary tension and wettability and their effect on capillary
pressure, describe methods of determining values of capillary
pressure, and convert laboratory capillary pressure values to reservoir
conditions;
5.
Describe methods of determining fluid saturations in reservoir rock
and show relationship between fluid saturation and capillary pressure;
6.
Define resistivity, electrical formation resistivity factor, resistivity
index, saturation exponent, and cementation factor and show their
relationship and uses; discuss laboratory measurement of electrical
properties of reservoir rocks; and demonstrate the calculations
necessary in analyzing laboratory measurements;
Course Objectives
7.
Define effective permeability, relative permeability, permeability
ratio; reproduce typical relative permeability curves and show effect of
saturation history on relative permeability; illustrate the measurement
of relative permeability; and demonstrate some uses of relative
permeability data.
8.
Describe three-phase flow in reservoir rock and explain methods of
displaying three-phase effective permeabilities.
9.
Demonstrate the techniques of averaging porosity, permeability, and
reservoir pressure data.
10. Demonstrate capability to perform calculations relating to all
concepts above.

DEFINITIONS - SEDIMENTARY ROCK
Sedimentary Rock
Rock Formed from the Weathered
Products of Pre-Existing Rocks and
Transported by Water, Wind, and
Glaciers
Clastic Sedimentary Rocks (Such as
Shale, Siltstone, and Sandstone)
Consist of Broken Fragments of
Pre-Existing Rock (cf. Detrital)
Carbonate Sedimentary Rocks (and
Evaporites) May Form by Chemical
Precipitation or Organic Activity
CLASTIC AND CARBONATE ROCKS
Clastic Rocks
Consist Primarily of Silicate Minerals
Are Classified on the Basis of:
- Grain Size
- Mineral Composition
Carbonate Rocks
Consist Primarily of Carbonate Minerals
-2
(i.e. Minerals With a CO3 Anion Group)
- Predominately Calcite (Limestone)
- Predominately Dolomite (Dolomite
or Dolostone)
Classified by Grain Size and Texture

DESCRIBING A RESERVOIR
Structural Characterization
STRUCTURAL HYDROCARBON TRAP
This structural trap is formed by an anticline and a normal fault.
From Schlumberger Oilfield Glossary
DOMAL TRAP
• Are hydrocarbons in this field oil or gas?
• What is the volume of hydrocarbons
In this trap?
• What are the reserves?
Closure. In map view (top),
closure is the area within the
deepest structural contour
that forms a trapping
geometry, in this case 1300
ft [390 m]. In cross section
A-A', closure is the vertical
distance from the top of the
structure to the lowest
closing contour, in this case
about 350 ft [105 m]. The
point beyond which
hydrocarbons could leak
from or migrate beyond the
trap is the spill point.
From Schlumberger Oilfield Glossary
WATER DRIVE
What is the Drive
Mechanism?
A reservoir-drive
mechanism whereby
the oil is driven
through the
reservoir by an
active aquifer. As
the reservoir
depletes, the water
moving in from the
aquifer below
displaces the oil
until the aquifer
energy is expended
or the well
eventually produces
too much water to
be viable.
From Schlumberger Oilfield Glossary
GAS EXPANSION DRIVE
What is the Drive
Mechanism?
A gas-drive
system
utilizes the
energy of
the
reservoir
gas,
identifiable
as either as
free or
solution
gas, to
produce
reservoir
liquids.
Are there other
drive mechanisms?
