Abstract
Permeability in earth models has three components: natural fracture, distinctive matrix permeability and porosity correlated matrix permeability. While matrix permeability is usually predictable from porosity and diagenesis effects, fracture permeability can be a highly uncertain parameter. The earth model permeability components are calibrated by determining fracture distribution and estimating fracture properties through an iterative optimization process. The calibration proceeds iteratively until the current estimate of calculated reservoir flow capacity is within acceptable accuracy limits to reservoir flow capacity indicated from production logging tool measurements.
