Book Description

This book enables petroleum reservoir engineers to predict the flow of fluids within a hydrocarbon deposit. Laboratory techniques are described for both steady-state and unsteady state measurements, and the calculation of relative permeability from field data is illustrated.

A discussion of techniques for determining wettability is included, along with theoretical and empirical methods for the calculation of relative permeability, and prediction techniques.
