Abstract
method for characterizing an oil well may include obtaining measurements of petrophysical properties relating to the oil/gas or water well, obtaining a computer-aided tomography index measured on a core sample relating to the well that is matched to geochemical concentration from geochemical logs or rock-analysis, correcting the measurements of petrophysical properties as a function of the computer-aided tomography index, and developing a model of a subterranean formation using the measurements that were corrected.
