Abstract EN
Knowledge of permeability, which is the ability of rocks to transmit the fluid, is important for understanding the flow mechanisms in oil and gas reservoirs.
Permeability is best measured in the laboratory on cored rock taken from the reservoir.
Coring is expensive and time-consuming in comparison to the electronic survey techniques most commonly used to gain information about permeability.
Yamama formation was chosen, to predict the permeability by using FZI method.
Yamama Formation is the main lower cretaceous carbonate reservoir in southern of Iraq.
This formation is made up mainly of limestone.
Yamama formation was deposited on a gradually rising basin floor.
The digenesis of Yamama sediments is very important due to its direct relation to the porosity and permeability.
In this study permeability has been predicated by using the Flow zone indicator methods.
This method attempts to identify the flow zone indicator in un-cored wells using log records.
Once the flow zone indicator is calculated from the core data, a relationship between this FZI value and the well logs can be obtained.
