  We all know that J=Pc*(K/Ф)^(1/2) : (σ * cosѲ) but how can we have the curve between Pc and Water Saturation (Sw).

  @BoffyBlunt2 күн бұрын

  The relationship you quote defines a dimensionless capillary pressure. Both the J function and capillary pressure are functions of saturation - the values depends on how the fluids are configured within the pore space.

  Hello, Prof.Martin! I'm impressed by your lectures, but you explain "interfacial tension" matter a bit incorrectly. The key is in intermolecular interaction. The molecules at the interface are pulled into volume so the average distances between molecules at the interface become large than inside the volume. Due to this increase of distance you have additional increase in potential energy for the molecules at the interface. Moreover the increase in distance is the tension! That is why the matter is called surface tension. So energy per unit area, sigma, is the PROPERTY of the fluid at certain temperature. Surface energy Wsurf=sigma*Area. Moreover, once you explain Young's equation you don't use the equilibrium of border line which surrounds the water droplet, i.e. molecules of the interface of each phase pull the border line due to tension and that is why the balance equation is introduced in such simple form. In other words, tension force, F, is proportional to the length of border line, i.e. F=sigma*length. If you consider a small segment of border line then F=sigma*dL. There is no sense to introduce "broken bonds" or similar physics because these are secondary matters. Having say that I'm really expressed by subsequent course where you 've introduced the percolation matter, snap off and trapping. Your triangle example is very helpful in understanding of layering or swelling of layers while imbibition. Sorry for my runglish, i.e. Russian English!

  Thank you for your comment. You are indeed correct in your physical interpretation as to why the interface between two fluids can be considered literally as a tension. Thank you for adding this explanation in the comments. In my video I kept the idea simple as a change in energy following the approach written by a Nobel Prize winner in Physics: 10. Capillary and Wetting Phenomena: Drops, Bubbles, Pearls, Waves, P-G de Gennes, F. Brochard-Wyart and D. Quéré, Springer (2002).

I'm 44 years old, but it sometimes difficult to realise that you missed something in the school and you need to prepare for the lectures for your colleagues.

  Are any of these "I" events more common in certain rock types than others? For instance I_1 is more common in sandstone while I_2 and I_3 more common in carbonates?

• 
  @BoffyBlunt2 ай бұрын

  An excellent question. The relative frequency of these mechanisms is dependent on pore and throat geometry. In general snap-off is most common if throats are much smaller than pores, whereas the different pore-filling processes occur at similar pressures. In more uniform systems, I1 will be much more frequent. It is difficult to say what is the case in general for carbonates and sandstones - it depends on the exact structure of the rock.

  Hello Professor, thanks for your video! If it's water-wetting, will the stage of forced water injection happen? For example, raising the water pressure causes some trapped non-wetting phases in the pore body to overcome the capillary resistance of the throat connected to it, then the S1 or Sw further increases.

  Hello, Professor. Thanks for your video! Can you explain how to determine the curvature sign? My understanding is that if the curvature center is in the denser phase, then it is positive. Is that right?

• 
  @BoffyBlunt2 ай бұрын

  I think you have this the wrong way round. We define the capillary pressure as the difference in pressure between the less dense phase and the denser phase, then positive curvature is when the less dense phase bulges out into the less dense phase (think gas and water).

  Key takeaways: 1) Primary drainage or primary migration is the movement of oil (non wetting) inside the reservoir rocks moving the initially present water into smaller pores or corner of the pores. After a while, oil due to its contact with the rock becomes wetting in these regions. 2) Injection of water is in piston like manner, where it fills middle of the pore leading to layer of oil formed between middle water and water at corners. This layer becomes smaller and smaller as more water is injected. 3) Mixed wettability involves both snap off (smaller pores) and percolation (larger pores) processes.

• 
  @BoffyBlunt4 ай бұрын

  Many thanks for this summary. Point 1 is correct, with the caveat that the wettability change depends on the oil, rock and brine as well as the temperature and pressure: in some cases the rock becomes oil-wet, in others not. Moreover, we can see a mix of water-wet and oil-wet pores in a single sample - this is mixed-wettability. Point 2 is correct in oil-wet pores. Point 3 requires some clarification. In a mixed-wet medium, the water-wet pores and throats fill first (the throats by snap-off) in a percolation-like process. Then oil-wet pores are filled from the already water-occupied regions of the pore space. This is no longer invasion percolation as the water need not be connected through the centre of the pore space to the inlet. Overall displacement in a mixed-wet medium is best thought of as a percolation (not invasion percolation) process.

  Yes this can be done but with care on definition. You should compare the ratio of advection, capillarity and gravity over a relevant length scale, which is the reservoir scale. The conventional capillary number does not have a length scale and represents a balance of viscous to capillary forces at the pore scale.

  If you had a sample of the oil you could measure interfacial tension using, for instance, the pendant drop technique. This does however require specialist equipment.

• 
  @BoffyBlunt5 ай бұрын

  This is because imbibition into small pores happens at a higher capillary pressure - it is more energetically favourable for the wetting phase to reside close to the solid. The non-wetting phase preferentially minimizes its contact with the solid by residing in the larger pores.

  Dear proffessore , is it true that : at conditions above the capillary pressure at Swi, capillary forces are entirely dominant, whereas outside the capillary pressure at 100% wetting-phase saturation, the conditions are analogous to the complete dominance of gravity forces, and within these two Pc-Sw endpoints, both gravity and capillary forces can be considered as being active.

  Dear Professor, i might have misconception In terms of pressure, any fluid will flow directly towards the lowest pressure, which in this case is the wider thoughts. In another context, fluids tend to follow the path of least resistance. I understand that there are preferences and wetting properties that influence fluid flow through smaller throughts, but I'm struggling to grasp how these two principles work together. Is the high cohesive force in the small thoughts attracting the water, and because this high cohisive force we need a high pressure to overcome this attraction force and displace oil ? Thank you for your guidance.

•

  The capillary pressure is determined by wettability - the cohesive force, as you say, for the fluid to the solid. In this case the water pressure is lowest in the small throats, as here the capillary pressure is highest.

  You can use the J-function to estimate the saturation as a function of height in the transition zone. The capillary pressure is the density difference between water and oil times the acceleration due to gravity times height above the free water level. You find the saturation whose capillary pressure gives this value - the J-function allows you to account for variations in local porosity and permeability.
