Abstract

A method for assigning a wettability or related parameter to a subvolume of formation located between two or more boreholes is described. The method includes the steps of obtaining measurements of resistivity at a subvolume, obtaining further parameters determining a relation between resistivity and saturation from logging measurements along the two or more boreholes, obtaining geological measurements defining geological or rock-type boundaries within the formation between the two or more boreholes, selecting the subvolume such that it is intersected by the geological or rock-type boundaries; transforming the resistivity measurements into the saturation at the subvolume; and using the saturation and/or the further parameters to determine the wettability or related parameter for the subvolume.
