Abstract
A method for determining the pore size distribution in a reservoir, including the steps: drilling a core sample out of the reservoir, determining a porosity distribution along the core sample, obtaining T-distributions at different saturation levels of the core sample with formation brine, performing time domain subtraction on the T-distributions to obtain T-distributions at all saturation levels, determining the pore throat size distribution along the core sample, determining first porosities from the T-distributions that correspond to second porosities of the pore throat size distribution for each saturation level, determining T-distributions at the first porosities from the T-distributions, determining pore throat sizes at the second porosities from the pore throat size distributions, plotting the pore throat sizes as function of the relaxation times Tto obtain the surface relaxation, and determining the pore size distribution of the reservoir.
